"Mermaid" by Nina Vsacheva-Green, mixed media on canvas, 1989; signed by artist. Nina Usacheva-Green was born in Rostov Velikiy, Russia. At fourteen, she entered Moscow's School of Decorative Art. In 1972 she graduated from the Institute of Graphic Art and Design in Moscow. After emigrating to New York in 1974, she began to develop her own personal style. In her canvasses poetic images and Rennaissance-like technique are combine forming decorative gaiety and memorable beauty. These unique works consist of many different compartmentalized compositions. Working on both canvas and wood, she adds the element of relief through a multitude of patterns and textures. Her work is reminiscent of Medieval songs, sung not with words and ancient music, but with lines and color.
