J'ai fait un rêve© (I had a dream) is written in 6 different languages (Dutch, English, German, Italian, Spanish, French) -each in a separate ray.
This surrealistic painting is luxuriously painted in thick acrylics with glorious metallic colors to evoke the spookiness of a surrealistic dream.
I love the surrealistic style in which fantastical visual imagery from the subconscious mind is used with no intention of making the work logically comprehensible.
If you want to see this painting, it's hanging at my daughter Fleur's apartment in New York City Manhattan!
I framed it in a bordeaux red wooden frame.
Really smashing! ___________________________________

Wow Olga, amazing stuff. I love eyes like you obviously do too! Surrealism is not an easy art-form, but you seem to understand it well! The name 'J'ai fait un rêve' and the use of it throughout the painting is a fabulous touch! Bravo! ColletteChadwick Yates 13 Oct 2006

The eye really shows vivid expression. Very surreal and lovely.John Sandora 07 Oct 2006
Though I don't understand all aspects of it, this is truely multi-demensional masterpiece. Vivid imagery. To me it's a futurist world depicting the watchful eye of government. Great cities in a vast galaxy on the super highway of space. Truely great work!Julia Robson 03 Oct 2006
Truly amazing!Chris Hoffman 28 Sep 2006

Totally awesome work...........this is MY kinda stuff Olga,truly Superb!, Well done Olga..........Andrew Marx 16 Jul 2006
especially spacial...I can relate!!!David Holcombe 16 Jul 2006
This is a visually complex piece. The intersecting straight lines and the floating balls, mixed with the two mysterious eyes makes for a lots of movement. It has the busy feeling of a dream, accentuated by the deliberate absence of any negative space. The title is, of course, a complimentary element and in six languages no less. (Ah, les reves sont vraiment une langage universelle.)Ruud Janssen 15 Jul 2006
yes, this one i LIKE A LOT. Nice structures en such a dept. Thanks for showing us.John A Birch 13 Jul 2006
