Olga Manthos

As a native New Yorker, I cherish the vast cultural opportunities offered in New York City – art museums, galleries, concerts and dance performances, to name a few.

I have especially admired artists such as Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Wassily Kandinsky, Peter Max and Charles Fazzino. I work with colors, patterns, designs and textures. I use colored pencils, markers and patterned paper materials to create detailed designs and collages. Most recently I created several abstract paintings using acrylic paints. I enjoy creating most of my art pieces while listening to various genres of music.

My passion for art is both a relaxing and an invigorating creative experience. As a member of the Riverdale Art Association, I look forward to continuing my creative expressions, sharing my art and appreciating the creativity of other artists as well.
