Y. Hope Osborn Author and Artist

In childhood, play and self were stifled by abusive parents. In adulthood, activity is stifled by disabling health resultant of a traumatic life. However, as author and artist I freely play and write my truth in these my subjects as a survivor, regardless of trauma, disability, financial insecurity, lack of art education.

Y. Hope Osborn is an author, photographer, digital artist, editor, and web designer residing in Little Rock, Arkansas, USA. Her published writing includes ecological experiences that educate and entertain and personal traumas that encourage survivors and expose victimization. She photographs the jewels of color landscapes, mindful of unique, momentary beauty. She composes black and white abstract and documentary photographic studies of historic and timeworn architecture in rich tonality, vivid texture, and creative perspective alongside texts of history and her story , weaving art with how she/we think, feel, believe, connect, and care.
