Olga Philip is an artist living and working in Toronto. She taught at the Ontario College of Art and Design for twenty years and she has now since retired. Printmaking was her first love and it became a gateway for exploring different mediums of expression for her including, working with handmade paper. She has exhibited her work in various public and private galleries in Ontario and some parts of Canada. After giving up her printmaking and papermaking equipment she is now on a new path in her practice. Thematically, she continues to work out of a humanistic understanding of herself in the world.
