Treveccan Stories: A Doorway to Nature

Alumnus and artist Adam Hall has found success painting landscapes that connect viewers to the natural world.

Contemporary oil painter Adam Hall (’03) came to Trevecca with a bent toward creativity, but he initially pursued music.

“Visual arts have always been a part of my life, but early on it primarily was a way to express myself or help navigate internal struggles,” he said. After graduating with a degree in music business, he got a job as a road manager for the Christian rock band Petra.

“I started to learn graphic design to help other bands with their merch,” he said. He enjoyed this different avenue of artistic expression and began working with record labels as a graphic designer. He also continued painting, gradually building a portfolio of artwork.
