Statement of Artist – Usha Kolpe

My art is mainly inspired by nature and my surroundings. Nature is emotionally restorative to me. It gives a sense of renewal that paves the way for my self-reflections within me and outside surroundings, for my personal growth, and spiritual evolution.

Nature’s changes and events profoundly healing effect just like dawn rolls out after night, spring after winter pleasure and pain of every seasonal events that heal the wounds of life events some time with scar or without scar. These events transformation into meaningful new light and beautiful dimensions to life resulting in resilience, defiance and reverence to all life forms.

Lifeforce resourceful elements, water, air, fire, space, earth, sun, moon, planets, stars, their transformation to mountains, rivers, lakes, clouds, plants, animals, the gifts endowed to human life. Nature constantly nurturing, dynamically changing, transforming, each having its own energy and radiance with the harmony of mystic mist. The same harmony within me, around me, and along with nature is visible in my paintings and drawings.

Nature is a real doctor that heals the soul, gives peace, and motivates the discovery of endless new frontiers of life. The forests, landscapes, a tree, colorful flowers, birds, bees, insects tell the story of the endless possibility of joy and grace to embrace. I tried to capture these events in full or in a fragmented manner to show the beauty of nature that creates positive emotions, happiness, and peace within me and the viewers.
