Nancy is a painter/performance artist who began painting to music about 18 years ago, and who
captures the essence of music and brings it to life in her art. Nancy has transformed bare walls into
masterpieces with unique paintings she creates "on the spot." Her work is exhibited worldwide,
and she attributes her art to musicians she loves - Charlie Parker, Pharoah Sanders, Sun Ra, Eric
Dolphy (bottom right) and others.
The Green Street Grill has a collection of more than 30 paintings by Nancy Ostrovsky. Included are
two murals created when Ostrovsky painted live to jazz. One large, 8 x 12 painting was done in
collaboration with world renowned bassist, Fred Hopkins. Ostrovsky was born in North Africa and
spent her childhood in numerous countries in Asia. She had her first solo exhibition at the age of
eighteen and has since exhibited in Germany, Czechoslovakia, Maine, Massachusetts, and New York.
Nancy is known for her paintings of wrestlers. Her work is being sold through the Wrestling One
