Artist Statement
AUTUMN BOSE
As an artist, intuitive tarot reader, and Navy veteran, I weave together diverse experiences to create meaningful connections and inspire transformative journeys. Drawing upon my psychic abilities, empathy, and insights from guides and cards, I channel metaphysical wisdom into my artwork and tarot readings.
My creative process is a fusion of intuition, emotion, and spiritual exploration. Through painting, writing, and intuitive expression, I explore the depths of the human experience and the interconnectedness of all beings. Each piece reflects a journey of self-discovery, inviting viewers to delve into their own inner landscapes and uncover hidden truths.
My artwork serves as a visual representation of the unseen realms, bridging the gap between the mundane and the mystical. Whether through vibrant colors, intricate symbolism, or ethereal imagery, I aim to evoke emotions, spark curiosity, and ignite the imagination.
At the heart of my artistic practice lies a desire to inspire and uplift others, guiding them on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment. Through my tarot readings and intuitive guidance, I offer practical insights and spiritual wisdom to help individuals navigate life’s challenges and embrace their true potential.
Together, my art and tarot readings serve as portals to the soul, inviting seekers to embark on a journey of self-exploration, healing, and transformation. With each brushstroke and card drawn, I weave tales of luxury, wisdom, and artistry, illuminating the path to a brighter, more inspired future.

I LOVE OIL PASTEL
I have a profound affinity for oil pastels, considering them my preferred medium of expression. My artistic inspiration draws heavily from the works of Wayne Thiebaud, a renowned artist featured in publications such as ArtDaily, LA Weekly, and the San Francisco Chronicle. Thiebaud’s adept use of oil pastels to infuse vibrancy into his creations resonates deeply with me. Additionally, I find inspiration in Harlem Renaissance artists like Romare Bearden and Laura Wheeler Waring. Their influence is evident in my work.
