Olga Gurski traces her descent from an old Ukrainian, formerly Polish, and before that Czech nobility of the 13th century, of the Sternberg coat of arms.

There, having settled in Gmunden, on the Lake Traun, she took part in various art exhibitions (Linz, Salzburg), where her paintings were highly praised by the critics.

Exhibitions of her paintings were held almost every year in Buenos Aires' renowned art galleries, such as Müller, Van Riel, Whitcomb, etc., and in the United States and Canada as well.

From the Buenos Aires Provincial Government, she received a special invitation to exhibit her works in Mar del Plata, the famous sea side resort.

After numerous experiments concerning a painting technique to adopt, she definitely turned to a manner which can best be described as a late Post-Impressionism, where, as quoted be the art critic Pedro H. Bidart, "the colors flow like a piece of music by Ravel, or Debussy".
