Eileen Olson’s new work is an exploration of Mount Athos, the Holy  Mountain in Greece.  Using her imagination to cross the threshold of a site forbidden to women, Olson’s journey is a quest influenced by those who spent their lives dedicated to the worship of the Mother of God.  These works have a deep respect for the tradition of Greek Orthodoxy.

Eileen Olson studied at the Brooklyn Museum of Art and at the Corcoran School of Art.  She is a member of the American Watercolor Society.  She is a member of the Friends of Mt. Athos.
