Born in 1961 in Bridgeport, CT, U.S.A.


Lee M. Osborne, Jr. is a self-taught artist who has been painting since the early 70’s. He has studied most aspects of art from Fine Art to Applied Art.



"I strive to create an emotion in the viewer by using society, its ideas, and its beliefs about everything around us. I want the viewer to see the meaning behind the painting, to think about what they’re seeing, and not to just notice a pretty picture, for a good portion of life is not a pretty picture and generally is what we make it. I enjoy painting what life is as a part of this society, and I like to bring out issues which, in most cases, are disturbing to people so that it forces them to think about reality.

Emotions in society are what my paintings are about. This is my passion in being an artist"
