Inside a Storied Artist Residence Nestled within the Historic National Arts Club

If these walls could talk! Step inside the world of renowned portrait artist Michael Shane Neal as he takes us on an exclusive tour of his one-of-a-kind apartment within the historic National Arts Club, nestled off Gramercy Park in New York City.

Splitting his time between Nashville and New York, Shane has made a name for himself painting some of history’s most influential figures. His meticulous and intricate portraits have captured the essence of legendary figures, and now, he invites us into a space that has its own storied past. His apartment, once home to iconic artists like Everett Raymond Kinstler—his longtime mentor—and Frank Vincent DuMond, is a treasure trove of artistic legacy. As we wander through the club’s grand halls and Shane’s remarkable residence, we uncover the fascinating history of a place that has hosted Hollywood stars, world leaders, and even Princess Diana. If these walls could talk, they’d tell tales of legendary artists and the extraordinary subjects who have graced this space. Enjoy this rare glimpse inside one of New York’s most exclusive artistic enclaves!
