About Olena

I am a printmaker and fibre artist based in Edmonton, Alberta. While I have always been creative, it wasn’t until my 30s that I managed to narrow down my artistic interests to print and fibre, and committed to pursuing them more intentionally. I have a deep appreciation for traditional craft and an innate desire to infuse it with a modern aesthetic.

My work is a reflection of how I wish to see the world - clean, simple, cheerful, with a touch of whimsy. Ironically enough, it is an aesthetic that is often missing from my everyday life.

I make everything by hand in my home studio with unsolicited assistance from my (very) hands-on (furry) helper Roe.
