Her current series “Dead Bugs” depicts the deceased insects with which she encounters on a daily basis. Recently, her paintings have been included in the Biennial by the Center for Contemporary Art of South Carolina, the LaGrange Southeast Regional, the Loveland Museum, and as a finalist for the CCA Prize. She is a 2025 Visiting Artist at the Gibbes Museum of Art.Hooray Osmond’s artwork has been featured in Introspective Magazine, Art and Cake LA, Shoutout Atlanta, and ArtMag.
