Hope

Trudy is an artist from Brisbane/Meanjin whose colourful style is influenced by feminine figures, nature and animals, Art Nouveau and fashion.

She paints mostly females in varying poses, showing their strength and beauty. A love of animals is also featured in many of her artworks, as animals are a strong calming influence in her life.

Painting and art have always been a way for Trudy to deal with times of stress and anxiety, expressing her love for colour and the dreamy and whimsical.

I have painted this girl, recovering from sadness, reaching for the butterfly in the light as the eternal symbol of hope.
