Trudy WhiteTrudy White was born in Melbourne, and as an adult has lived in lots of different suburbs around the inner city. She studied art and design at Box Hill TAFE, then went on to art school and majored in painting. She started writing stories and producin hand-made story books during her Bachelor of Arts degree. After art school, she kept making pictures and writing and doing further study, including painting, beekeeping, plant science and writing.

Now she shares a studio with two other artists in an old building right in the middle of Melbourne. All nine floors are occupied by painters, designers, hat makers, jewellers, writers, fashion designers - plus a couple of private eyes!

Trudy rides her bicycle into the studio every day, but when she's not working Trudy likes wandering around looking at buildings and gardens, going to the beach, reading books and seeing friends. Her formerly stray cat, Gogo, likes to sleep on her pillow, next to her head. Read More Read Less
