BIOGRAPHY
Liz Osborne is an eccentric, abstract painter based in Knoxville, Tennessee. Her work is a combination of layering acrylic paint with a variety of mediums, ranging from textiles to glitter. Liz enlisted in the Navy at 20, then spent the next 10 years stationed in Norfolk, Virginia serving on a variety of Naval ships and base commands. The noxious environment took a gigantic toll on Liz’s mental health and until finding her passion for painting in 2020, she never had a constructive emotional outlet. Each piece of art has an aura of its own as Liz’s passion shines through with uninhibited energy and expressive brushstrokes.

STATEMENT
For me, it’s simple, I paint what I feel. If I’m feeling euphoric, you’ll know by my brushstroke or the colors exuding off the canvas. Or if I’m feeling neurotic or melancholic, you’ll still see it. I can’t be contained in a box or category. I’m uniquely free in what I do.
