Jon Osborne is a Contemporary Self-Taught Artist from Birmingham, Alabama. Jon's artwork is "Music meets art storytelling." In 2019, Jon suffered a traumatic brain injury and acquired "music to color synesthesia," a condition where he sees colors and patterns when he hears sounds, which he incorporates into his paintings. Osborne uses Buddhist meditations and flow state in his creative process to experience art as healing. While deeply inspired by music, his art explores raw emotions, feelings, and perceptions while also illustrating the world and the human experience.
