Shimon Okshteyn was born in 1951 in the town of Chernivtsi, part of Ukraine in what was then the U.S.S.R. Okshteyn's study of art began at an early age. Showing great artistic promise, he was accepted into the renowned Odessa Art Academy at the age of 19.
In the spring of 1980, Okshteyn emigrated to the United States. In his new environment, Okshteyn's art underwent a phenomenal stylistic transformation.

Okshteyn's imagination was captivated by the bewildering variety of life offered in an American city. The variety and intensity of everyday life sparked the new artistic series that dealt with 'American Reality.' Okshteyn's provocative forms and bold colors, coupled with conceptual and artistic innovations, place him among the most successful artists of the day.
