Olga Alba de Chica (August 21, 1921 – December 16, 2016) was a Colombian self-taught neo-primitivist painter.
[1][2] Olga de Chica was born in Filandia, in the coffee region of Quindío, Colombia in August 1921.
De Chica started painting as a child, when it is said she used squeezed flowers in an attempt to create lively colors.
However, the bulk of her lifetime was spent as the wife of a local school teacher, and the mother of two daughters and a son.
De Chica painted in a style that is described as "primitivist", which she developed organically without any formal artistic training.
