A Wisconsin native, Trudi is a first generation American of Swiss heritage with a degree in Education from the University of Wisconsin.

Trudi says, “I have been painting seriously since the late 1980’s. My joy is painting “Plein Air” with the Artistic Women on Location (AWOL). I enjoy using a variety of media, including watercolor, photography, collage, and oil. I consider myself a Picture Maker & a Picture Taker.”
