Autumn Rozario Hall-Artist Bio
"I help people re-connect with nature and their sense of wonder by creating art that inspires and uplifts."
Autumn grew up by the banks of the Mississippi river. And though she lived in town, she always sought the wild places, where the brambles overran the houses, and the gardens outgrew their yards. Hidden in back lots, choked with weeds, was a kind of magic. A magic of growing things.
Autumn Rozario Hall is a Puerto Rican painter, dreamer, mother, and writer. She grew up along the banks of the Mississippi river and blends art with environmental outreach through gallery shows, native plant workshops, and writing. Her acrylic mixed media paintings explore story and the inextricable connection between person, earth, and the process of growth.
Her art and writing can be found in Tales from the Scraggle Wood: stories and art inspired by folktales and nature. Her art and writing has been published in literary journals including, Cove Literary Journal, The Folklore Review, The Hopper, and others.
Autumn Rozario Hall currently lives in Iowa City, Iowa. She is a recipient of a community art grant from the BeWild ReWild fund at Iowa Natural Heritage Foundation.
Her art has been shown in galleries across the country as well as closer to home in Iowa. Autumn enjoys being part of her local art community.
