Ray Olson. But abstract expressionism was already the biggest game in town, and Blaine soon reacted to it. From Booklist When the young poets David Lehman splendidly limns in The Last Avant-Garde arrived in New York, they all met the ebullient Nell Blaine, who was making her name with colorful abstractions that showed the influence of the famous painter-teacher Hans Hofmann in their strong geometric compositional grounding and of Leger in their bold lines.

Nell Blaine, by Martica Sawin Helen Opie I bought this book because I loved the few images I'd seen of Nell Blaine'swork, and I admired her courage in relearning to paint after contracting polio. The book is a disappointment. True, the text is scholarly, perhaps a bit unspecific at times, and the reproductions are gorgeous, making me want to get back to my easel - AND I found I painted better aft. BEAUTIFUL & INSPIRING This book has given me many hours of pleasure. And to think I almost didn't buy it because of one negative review! Nell Blaine, arguably one of the best painters of the American 20th century, is a master of composition and color. The book's text and reproductions do her life and work justice.. My take on Nell Blaine book Having seen some of her originals, I think the reproductions of her paintings - both oils and watercolors, are excelent. They're just a joy to look at. Martica Savin's biography and discussion of Nell Blaine's work was fascinating and her life a revelation. A very satisfying addition to my collection of Art Books.
