About the Artist

Oleg Zhivetin was born on March 8, 1964 in Tashkent, Capitol of the Soviet Republic of Uzbekistan, to a family of Russian painters.

While still young, his family resettled in Moscow, where Oleg began his studies at age fifteen at the Moscow Academy of Art. At the academy he continued to learn how to paint and draw as well as study traditional subjects such as history, of which Oleg is extremely fond. He earned his Fine Art degree, with honors, in 1982. Since then, Zhivetin has worked on extraordinarily complex paintings with the universal theme of love in his recognizable fractured color style.

Numerous layers of paint achieve the richness and vitality of colors in his artwork. The sensuous lines and intricate patterns of the paintings are enhanced with the application of gold, silver or copper leaf. He has perfected his fragmented imagery technique and his work elicits remarkably positive responses from his collectors.

Oleg has made his home in both California and Russia over the years.
