Olga Talsma born on Schiermonnikoog on horseback over stands and dunes, now forest and heath in Drenthe. Therefore, her works are often characterized by her passion for nature and horses. But she also creates portraits and abstract works where all the elegance, strength and freedom are represented. These metaphors symbolize ‘the horse’ for her.

Originally, Olga is a graphic designer but has transitioned to craft work and has found herself in painting and sculpting.

In painting, it is the different layers of paint, the loose brushstroke, materials from nature, and the feeling she puts into her work that characterize her paintings.

In her spatial works, you can also see this expressive way of working reflected.

The most important conditions in art for Olga are inspiration and individuality in the work.

She regularly exhibits her work, teaches art and painting classes with great pleasure at various schools. Additionally, she offers painting workshops upon request.
