Thank you for visiting Usha Arts.com
Thirty years of passion for colors and training in mediums such as oils, acrylic, porcelain, pastels, mixed media and pottery has brought Usha to a point where she is now known nationally and internationally as an artist who breathes life into a canvas. Her work is valued for its beauty, sensitivity, vitality and for its unusual ability to capture likeness in portraits. Her credits include several gold, silver, bronze, and merit awards at renowned national and international events. All her solo shows received overwhelming response from artists and art connoisseurs alike. The one she held at Sylacauga, Alabama was no exception. Her works of art are on display as permanent collection in many cities and with many clientele and art galleries.
Usha interprets all elements from nature - landscapes, water, sky, and galaxies where energy flows in natural and vibrating forms. Usha says: “My life revolves around colors, clay and canvas. Art is my passion and I believe this is reflected in my artwork. I am fascinated with the power and energy that can be portrayed in abstract art and I want other people to feel the same energy and vitality through my paintings. I believe that art is an integral part of my existence and a means for me to communicate with the past, present and future.”

Just a few Comments from my clients
The work of a true master!
Today I was able to see the finished product "bride" for the first time. It left me speechless. I can not imagine the degree of skill needed to accomplish such fine work. The lace in the wedding dress looks like the viewer could feel the threads. The tones in the face and hair are perfect. And the eyes -- I could fall right into them.
This is by far going to be the best gift I have ever given my wife. I may be a little prejudice but I believe "bride" is the best piece on you site.
Thank you again for all your work. The way you used several photographs to formulate the pose is impressive to say the least.
I can never thank you enough,
Bill Hughes
Frank and I appreciate all of the talent, time, and attention to detail that you invested in his portrait. You are a wonderful artist and do a fantastic job on your own but still request input from a client when you are working on something special for them. You make sure that the work is exactly what was expected. I can't imagine a more talented or concerned artist from whom you could commission a portrait. The portrait will be appreciated throughout our lives and passed on to future generations. Thank you for being a wonderful person to work with as well as for sharing your talent with us.

They are breathtaking!
The portrait of Michelle Westmoreland is so lovely, just as she is. You have brought a delightful gift to those who know Tom and Michelle by sharing this portrait on your site.

Usha, I LOVE them!
I am a friend of Michelle Westmoreland. You have captured her in such a beautiful, flattering, sweet way. Somehow you have perfectly portrayed her inner beauty. I have browsed your other work. You are amazing!

YES I LOVED ALL I VIEWED-WHAT A PRECIOUS GIFT!
Usha -I am Tom Westmorelands sister and am so happy for him you were able to do this beautiful portrait of Michelle. To make them both so happy with such a very special and unique present should really warm your heart
and soul. It did mine. Continued sucess in your great gift of talent-Rita
Rita Jones
You paintings are exquisite, Usha.
You caught Michelle's essential beauty -- looking through the love in Tom's eyes!

Very beautiful
I don't have a computer at home so I needed to wait until I came back to work today to write you. Again, this is the most beautiful painting and Michelle and I are so proud to have it. I catch her often looking at it. I know she is very happy with it. I told her it is the second most dear and important gift I have given her, second only to her engagement ring. The colors in the portrait are so lovely, but most of all, you capture her dear and kind spirit - something I feel is deep in her heart. I know we will cherish it forever. You were also very kind to get it done in time for me to give it as her Christmas present.
Again, many many thanks for doing it, for the rush job, but mostly for capturing her soul on canvas.
Tom

I Cried when I saw Woman in her Imagination. I am still crying as I write you this E mail. Thank you so much for taking the time to document the beauty of the woman spirit. You will never know what that means to me personally at this time in my life............ and the paintings on your sight evoked a lot a beautiful emotions I have been unable to allow myself to feel. Your uncanny knowledge pulled so much out of me the minute I looked at your stuff. I would like to talk with you more on your works - actually they are masterpieces!
All the best,
& thank you so much for allowing yourself to document images with your truest, and beautiful nature.
