Olga Dmytrenko was born and raised in Ukraine. Her love of the visual arts and science was cultivated at a young age by her father-artist and mother-mathematician. She is a graduate from Kiev State University where she majored in Physics in 1986. In 1990 she gained a Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry. She is an acrylic and oil abstract painter and also a research associate at the University of Delaware. Her paintings are often reminiscent of industrial landscapes or musical mindscapes with the organic motif with a significant emotional contribution. Some of her works are devoted to the human rights and fairness issues.
