About Usha Shantharam

I am a fine artist based in Bangalore, who portrays people and nature on canvas in oils and acrylics.
I display my works in galleries. I blog at http://usettyblog.blogspot.com, and I teach art on weekends.

I believe that painting from life is the truest form of expression.

'My personal phiosophy is to open people's minds to the beauty of our times and the scenes of everyday life around us.'
