Oregon Native Saints Go Marching Into the Karin Clarke Gallery: Olga Volchkova, Icon Painter of Northwest Botanicals

"Saint Nootka Rose" is one of the many Oregon "saints" you will encounter in the current exhibition of Olga Volchkova's iconography art in the Karin Clarke Gallery.

St. Salmonberry by Olga Volchkova features a portrait of young Oregon tribal woman. Olga tries to make her saints representative of Oregon's cultural diversity.

Olga Volchkova's Oregon icons bring a bright sunshine light into the already well-lit Karin Clarke Gallery.
