Nancy Whiteman
Nancy Whiteman is an American artist who relocated to Portugal in 2020. Her work explores the dichotomies that shape her life—precision and spontaneity, control and discovery, surface and depth. Working across acrylic landscapes, mixed-media abstractions, and portraiture, she often sands away top layers of paint to expose the hidden textures and histories beneath, inviting viewers to look beyond what is immediately visible.
Nancy lives in Vila Real de Santo António with her wife, Denise, and their dog, Onix.
