'''Elizabeth Osborne''' (born 1936, [[Philadelphia, Pennsylvania]]) is an American painter who lives and works in [[Philadelphia]]. 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. Her experimental assemblage paintings that incorporated objects began an inquiry into psychological content that she continued in a series of self-portraits and a long-running series of solitary female nudes and portraits. Osborne's later abstract paintings present a culmination of ideas—distilling her study of luminosity, the landscape, and light.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.locksgallery.com/press_pdf/07-19-09,%20inquirer.pdf |title=A painter showing her true colors by Edward Sozanski |publisher=The Philadelphia Inquirer |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150402201200/http://www.locksgallery.com/press_pdf/07-19-09%2C%20inquirer.pdf |archivedate=2015-04-02 }}</ref> |

Elizabeth Osborne (born 1936, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) is an American painter who lives and works in Philadelphia. 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. Her experimental assemblage paintings that incorporated objects began an inquiry into psychological content that she continued in a series of self-portraits and a long-running series of solitary female nudes and portraits. Osborne's later abstract paintings present a culmination of ideas—distilling her study of luminosity, the landscape, and light.[1]
