000890985 5208_ $$aIn 1942, at age 20, after a vision-impaired and rebellious childhood in Richmond, Virginia, Nell Blaine decamped for New York. Operations had corrected her eyesight, and she was newly aware of modern art, so different from the literal style of her youthful drawings. In Manhattan, her life was hectic, with raucous parties in her loft, lovers of both sexes, and freelance design jobs. Initially drawn to the rigorous formalism of Piet Mondrian, she received critical praise for her jazzy absractions. During the 1950s, she began to paint interiors and landscapes. By 1959, when the Whitney Museum purchased one of her paintings, her career was firmly established. That year, she contracted a severe form of polio on a trip to Greece; suddenly, she was a paraplegic. Undaunted, she taught herself to paint in oil with her left hand, reserving her right hand for watercolours.
