Instructor

​

Olga Klymyk

​

Olga Klymyk was born in the fall of 1977 in the Ukraine and grew to become a talented creative artist. A graduate of Arts & Crafts College in Kociv, she majored in Monumental Art, then completed graduate studies in graphics at University Stefanyke at Ivano-Frankivst, in the Ukraine.

​

After teaching art on the college level, painting murals in commercial buildings, consulting as an interior designer, as well as selling her art in retail stores, Olga emigrated to the USA in 2006 to continue exploring career opportunities.

​

She became a US citizen in 2011, and actively engages in a variety of work experiences to provide income for her and her teenage daughter living in Stamford, Ct. Olga gives private art instruction and teaches at the Ukrainian school. Although she has moved on from her membership, Ms. Klymyk spent the last few years as an active member of the Stamford based Loft Artists Association, now in its 40th year.

​

Olga is painting more, creating a new series, and pursuing new opportunities to exhibit and sell her growing collection of watercolor art that now consists of more than 30 pieces all professionally presented and ready to complete interiors.
