"No Value: A Year In Self-Portraits":
my book is now available at Blurb!


My name is Olga. I adore many types of art that let me express myself, be it finger painting or photography or the art of life itself.
I recently realized I do not know what I wanna do when I grow up :) So I started taking pictures. Photography is my big passion.
If you like to see the stuff that is more representative of who I am, as a person and artist, check out my 365 Project.

""""I have seen many here on Flickr who take great photos. I've seen many who can edit photos into very fanciful images. It is not often, however, that I've encountered folks like the olga_sgr! The imagination, humor, originality, and CHARM that they add to their photos and edits makes each a true joy and delight to see.
Just go through their photostream. I guaranty that this wonderful lady will leave you feeling happy, energized, and very inspired. I consider myself very fortunate to have found them. In my opinion, they are what Flickr is all about!! :-)""""""11th May, 2009

"A stream of massive talent, depth and humour. Olga is such a creative genius, her photography always has an edge, you get that from such an artistic person, with an amazing imagination. I love her photoshop tutorials, so thoughtful and interesting. Her self portraiture is of such a high standard, quality shots processed perfectly. The ideas behind them are mind blowing. You need to make time to browse through her sets, after your visit you will know what a funny, gentle, clever and spiritual person she is. A pleasure to dip into, this is a most varied and inspirational place to come."

"The very first photo of Olga’s I noticed was her “Day 114/365: Composition With Finger”. I thought to myself “she is so incredibly beautiful” and I couldn’t help but go look at her stream. Then I saw Day 113 and was thrilled because I knew that out of selfish and superficial reasons I had stumbled upon an artist. And I stumbled at a perfect time because Όλγα was about to school me in the power of Photoshop. She thinks (sometimes subconsciously) about every aspect of the image. The lighting, the colors, the composition, the style, but most important what the image makes the viewer think. She can do in one frame what some directors can’t do with 90 minutes of movie film (that’s ~129,600 frames at 24 fps). Even if she doesn’t realize it or do it on purpose she knows how to make your eye travel where she wants it to go, discover each piece of the puzzle, and then collect them all into an idea, or an emotion, or a gut feeling. And that’s what Art is.
I am saving up to get her a new camera. Not because I’m nice but because like I said, I’m selfish."27th October, 2008

"No one can't beat Olga's imagination! I love how she simply is never afraid of putting herself in to it...in her photography you can see her versatility ranging from ridicilous, humorous and over to top to surreal, emotional and everything in between. Damn do I adore her funny pictures - they always put me laughing! It's great to find people like Olga around here...her photostream is something different and definitely joyful."
