Description Among the women artists who came to prominence in the postwar era in New York, Painter Nell Blaine had a uniquely hard-won career.
Angry at being told she would never paint again, she taught.
Then, on a trip to Greece, Blaine developed polio, rendering her a paraplegic.
Her shows received glowing reviews, ARTnews honored her with a lengthy feature article, and one of her paintings hung in the Whitney Museum.
In her mid-thirties, her horizons seemed limitless.
