Breeze is a beautiful resin painting i worked on yesterday. This will be included in the show COSMIC RHYTHM.  Some how i like the scarlet and its hues. With whits as background and scarlet hues with a little bit of green pearl is the best combination for any decor with a little red in the room. Web site: usha-arts.com

'WEEPING BUDDHA' I knew BUDDHA never shed tears! But so far all I heard was Laughing and Blessing Buddha. After the Tankbund (Hyderabad, A.P., India) incident, I felt if Buddha was there he might have shed tears! As an artist I felt sorry for the destruction of our cultural icons in India.

Yupo Paper is the most versatile paper I have used so far.  It is a synthetic, plastic like paper and used for business cards and so on.   YUPO is the waterproof, tree-free Synthetic Paper with properties that make it the perfect solution for a variety of marketing, design, packaging and labeling needs.

After playing with the back ground, changing it couple of times, I am finally  happy with this back ground.  It has been also difficult to get a correct tone picture since it has a lot of blues.

Appreciate your comments.
