A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words




Juan Osborne

Juan says: "Words are powerful, they go straight
 into the human mind and really add
something to my pictures that  

you can't get from a regular picture taken with a camera.
 Mine have stories behind them that
 can be read, which is pretty unique.

I've made so many now that I've got the process
down to a tee and can churn out a lot in a short
space of time - maybe just a few days each."
