This article is about the American Artist and educator Rose Amelia Auld.

Principal Medium

Painting (acrylic)

Stylistic Tendencies

"Circles, patterns, intricacies of vibrant colors intrigue me. They compel me to orchestrate my paintings into interrelated symphonies of color. My colors have a clarity in their visual impact that underlines the straight-forwardness of my approach to art-my life. Surface embellishments and the use of horizontal symmetries echo my preoccupation with the rich visual histories of my people."

Thematic Concerns

"Education of the participant who views my work by providing positive visual imageries in keeping with the sacred traditions of a First World people. Through the use of universally understood symbologies, I attempt to uphold the dignity of my people by making iconographical figural representation of our spirit."

It was very challenging to find any writing by Rose Amelia Auld or information about the artists' life. The information above is from "Forever Free: Art by African-American Women" (1980) which is a text that accompanies a show in which Auld's work was a part of. Auld is an artist an an educator.
