Elizabeth Osborne Art
American, b. 1936
Elizabeth Osborne, born in Philadelphia on June 5, 1936, has exhibited extensively throughout the United States for over 40 years. After graduating from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and the University of Pennsylvania in 1959 for her undergraduate studies, Osborne was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship and traveled to Paris to study art. Her work is included in the collections of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the Woodmere Art Museum, The State Museum of Pennsylvania, the Delaware Art Museum and the McNay Art Museum. Her recent solo exhibitions include J. Cacciola Gallery, New York and The Print Center, Philadelphia. Osborne has received numerous awards including the Percy M. Owens Memorial Award, a MacDowell Colony Grant, the Richard and Hinda Rosenthal Foundation Award and a Fulbright Fellowship. Osborne has been an instructor at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts since 1966. Working primarily in oil paint and watercolor, her paintings are known to bridge ideas about formalist concerns, particularly luminosity with her explorations of nature, atmosphere and vistas. Beginning with figurative paintings in the 1960s and 70s, she moved on to bold, color-drenched landscapes and eventually abstractions that explore color spectrums. She lives and works in Philadelphia.
