Olga Noes
Option for registered users.
New Blood Art Statement
With incredible artistry Noes crafts vivid portraits from the glossy pages of magazine spreads and the vitality of pop culture. Without inhibitions Noes fearlessly explores her creative energies as she splashes and sweeps her paint across paper, freely guiding the intermingling of colours to then refine and orchestrate the hyper real. However, behind the shine and sheen of female beauty and the ardours of perfection we find teary marks and blurs, casting a melancholic and contemplative depth to her models. We see the fragility of beauty, at once refined yet ephemeral, a forlorn ode to love, desire and loss.

Artist Statement
Floating down a lazy river of beautiful women and acid encrusted dreams, Olga Noes was hatched in a sweeping east Tennessee town located on the outskirts of mischief. Her most prolific hobbies include routine beer drinking, solo dance parties and the ritual of dousing the divine with the atrocious, using pencils and paintbrushes as the viscosity.I'm a self-taught portrait artist by trade, with my primary fuel for creativity being juxtaposition. The marriage of beauty and tragedy is uniquely appealing to me in prose, paint and life in general. I aspire to join these two components in all my work, primarily using the female form and portraiture as my medium.
