Date
1989-90
Medium
Acrylic on canvas
Credit Line
Gift Donald W. McPhail, 2018
Dimensions
45 ¾ x 28 ½ in.

Osborne has a unique ability to seemingly “pour” fluid forms onto her canvases, creating a magical watery landscape. Large swaths of color suggest floating islands. The neon green stem of an exotic flower asserts a vertical presence, reaching upward and contrasting the horizontal movement of the islands.
