FORTITUDE – Limited Edition Landscape Impression by Samantha Lee Osner

Fortitude is a powerful and contemplative artwork from Samantha Lee Osner’s Précis collection — a series that explores presence, stillness, and the quiet emotional resonance of landscape.

This elegant portrait of a solitary tree captures both visual simplicity and profound symbolism. Standing firm against the elements, the tree represents strength, endurance, and the ability to remain grounded through life’s shifting seasons. The soft light and minimal composition evoke a deep sense of calm, reflecting Osner’s refined ability to express emotion through silence and space.

Shortlisted to represent one of Blou Punt’s upcoming wine releases, Fortitude embodies a timeless visual metaphor — resilience through grace and strength held in stillness.

Landscape Précis by Craig O’Flaherty 2023

Landscape is that instant
where reality becomes
an irretrievable story.
A peace, that allows me to
 
step back into who I am.
 
Burnt beige, whispered blue -
delicate specks of myself
outlined in appreciation
of Nature’s healing, in a
 
world that’s lost itself.
 
Sunlight sashays with shadow,
in a rhythm of its own.
If only I could take this back
with me, I might not be
 
so absent from myself.
 
I try unceasingly to satiate
that emptiness with effort.
Echoes and outlines disappear,
I lose my way.
 
Moments in amber light
are where I might come home
 
to my true self again.


ABOUT THE COLLECTION

Samantha Lee Osner’s Précis collection began as a series of minimalist fine art photographs layered with subtle mixed media interventions. Over time, it has evolved into a deeper exploration of atmosphere and emotion — now expressed through painting and layered techniques in addition to photographic foundations.

The collection draws attention to the delicate relationship between humanity and the natural world. Some pieces depict small human figures suspended in vast landscapes, evoking both solitude and a sense of perspective. Others focus purely on light, texture, and memory. With a refined sense of calm and poetic simplicity, Précis invites viewers to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the serene and restorative qualities of the natural world.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

I feel incredibly fortunate to have discovered my passion for visual art early in life — and even more so to have found it under the guidance and mentorship of my father, fine art photographer Martin Osner. After studying at his photography school, I was quickly immersed in the world of commercial photography, where I learned to problem-solve under pressure and developed a strong understanding of lighting and visual composition.

In time, I was drawn away from commercial work and returned to my creative roots. What began as a journey in fine art photography has since expanded to include painting and mixed media — a transition that has allowed me to express myself with greater freedom and nuance.

An emotional response to light, space, and memory shapes my work today. Whether working through photography, paint, or textured layers, I aim to create art that feels quiet, soulful, and contemplative — a reflection of the way I see and experience the world.

PRÈCIS | FORTITUDE

This magnificent tree's majesty and ethereal quality symbolize personal strength and endurance, inspiring us to draw inspiration from nature and find strength within ourselves. The tree's ability to weather the elements reminds us that we can overcome the challenges we face in life with resilience and fortitude.

ABOUT THE COLLECTION

Samantha Lee Osner's collection, "Précis," combines minimalist photography with mixed media overlays to explore the relationship between humanity and nature. Several pieces portray people as tiny figures in expansive landscapes, capturing the ethereal charm of the natural world and underscoring the unimportance of personal struggles in the broader scope. The collection encourages viewers to reflect on the allure of the environment and appreciate the simplicity and serenity of nature.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
