Heirloom portraits of women

Painted by hand in the old masters tradition, to live for centuries.
Oksana Nasisi
Painting women as a legacy for the next five hundred years
Oksana Nasisi is a New York artist and chronicler of women.
She paints only women — one subject, infinite women. Each portrait is a world: a record of desire, power, solitude, ambition, and the quiet intensity of a woman’s inner life.
Working in the living tradition of the Old Masters, she creates heirloom portraits in oil, silverpoint, and fresco — luminous, enduring works meant to be lived with and passed on.
Selected Works
A glimpse into the studio: portraits, silverpoint, and fresco — every piece made slowly, by hand, for the centuries.
Why my portraits glow
A natural ground and up to 30 hand-applied layers — the Old Masters' way. Built layer by layer, each portrait holds a quiet light within: it doesn't just hang on your wall, it glows from the inside.
