Jennifer Osborn is a native of Oakville, Ontario. As an only child, Jennifer spent a great deal of time on her own, and- developed an active imagination in order to entertain herself. Summers spent exploring wild areas of Ontario, and
- watching her father work with tools and machinery has made a lasting impression on her. With lack of family
- in the country, Jennifer has looked very much to her parents and animal companions for a history and sense of belonging.
- The stories of her parents and grandparent's lives had a profound impact on both her work and her life. She is
- constantly torn between the beauty of the disappearing natural world and the wonder of her working class heritage.
- This dichotomy is an ongoing source of artistic inspiration for Jennifer. Many of her works revolve around her
- surroundings and their importance to her personally.
Jennifer now lives in the small rural town of Acton, Ontario with her partner, two cats and a turtle.
