Olga McNamara

In the evocative realms of the abstract and the impressionistic, Olga McNamara weaves a tapestry of real and imagined emotion and experience into her original, hand-painted works. Her professional affiliations with the Association of Mediterranean Artists (AMA) and Visual Artists Ireland (VAI) stand as a testament to her unwavering dedication to her craft. Showcased in several solo and group art exhibitions in Europe, her unique paintings encapsulate her distinct artistic voice. Several of Olga's works have been honoured with prestigious awards in international juried painting exhibitions, including a Silver Award (Camelback Gallery, 2023) and an Artist of the Month Award (Upward Gallery, 2023).

Olga's body of work paints an intricate narrative of the human spirit, fuelled by a passionate exploration of raw emotion and the universal pursuit of love and joy. Each stroke on the canvas echoes her intuitive, deeply reflective approach to ideation and creation. Her signature style is an orchestrated blend of intentional brush and knife strokes, fluid rhythmic forms, and a vibrant palette that dances between hues. The evolution of her artistic journey over time has seen a shift from the natural landscapes and still-life studies that initially kindled her imagination to the bold and emotive realm of abstract expressionism. Created amidst the lush green landscapes of Ireland and the sun-drenched vistas of Cyprus, Olga's art is a reflection of her rich tapestry of experiences, both lived and observed.

Olga's ambition is for her paintings to transcend the physical realm; she aspires to invite the viewer to engage in a dialogue about the human experience, the subtleties of our psyches and environments, and the concealed beauty within them. Whether you are an art collector seeking a resonant piece, an individual looking to infuse your living or commercial space with an expressive abstract painting, or someone searching for a meaningful gift, Olga's works offer more than aesthetics – they offer an experience. As her art continues to inspire and captivate on a global stage, Olga McNamara warmly invites you to explore and engage with her art.
