Juror
Michele Usibelli,
Seattle, WA
Michele Usibelli, AIS was drawn to art at an early age. After receiving her degree in Architecture
from the University of Washington, Michele was able to combine her dedicated work ethic with
her love of travel, working in locations throughout the world. Michele draws upon her extensive
travels and life experiences as the basis of her work.
Ms. Usibelli works primarily in oils, with a flavor of impressionism, in her representational
style. Her early training established a strong foundation in the Russian Impressionist tradition
of seeing and painting shapes of light and color using relatively loose brushstrokes. She
has extensively studied and been influenced by numerous historic artists, most notably Nicholai
Fechin, John Singer Sargent and William Merritt Chase. Combined, all of these influences
have allowed Michele to establish her own unique artistic style and define her as a truly
versatile emerging 21st Century American Impressionist. Michele is recognized for her expressive
colors and the passionate brushwork she achieves in her portraits, landscapes, still lifes
and figurative work.
Michele is a member of the following organizations; Oil Painters of America, American Impressionist
Society/Signature Member, National Oil and Acrylic Painters Society, Women Artists of the
West, and Women Painters of Washington. To view work by Michele Usibelli, please
