Tina Osborne

I am a multi-media artist and jewelry designer that enjoys using a variety of mediums, subjects and surfaces. I have been creating things all my life, in one form or another.

Art work covers whatever catches my attention! Drawing, composition or abstraction and other creations serve to manifest my expressive, creative and conceptual intentions. Paintings can be naturalistic and representational, photographic, and/or abstract, sometimes with an intended narrative content, symbolism, and emotion or sometimes just for fun! I also like to paint works that can be displayed and enjoyed in outdoor places.

Jewellery ranges from semi-precious stones, leather, wirework and metals, glass, and sometimes a combination of multiple mediums. Painted Surfaces could be canvas, wood, glass, silks and fiber or anything else that can hold colour.

In 2024 my creative processes are being drawn to more spiritual and futuristic expressions. My work in resin is capturing the essence and magic of flowers. Resin creations involving organite energy in pyramids and jewellery are evolving and I am refocusing my attention again on crystal and mineral creations. Artwork is also refocusing on the spiritual, intuitive and futuristic genres, some with a socio political leaning. However there will always be room in my heart for the whimsical and realistic renderings of butterflies, dragonflies plants and trees and all things nature.

Artistic creation for me is like extrasensory precognition, discerning intuitively how the various components will move, mix, react and interact. To create is like a partnership of give and take, sometimes intellectually, sometimes physically and sometimes on a wing and a prayer that provide opportunities of emotional, intuitive and spiritual release.”
