LEARN

with Trudy

To make my solar plate etchings, I take my drawings, place them in the sun with a solar plate, wash out in a bath of water, and then ink and print them onto paper. It is time-consuming, but the results achieved with this non-toxic printmaking method capture my drawings of our natural environment perfectly.

Just a gorgeous original artwork. It looked really good on the computer screen but so much better in reality. I'm really happy with this investment - makes my heart sing.

My brother and his partner in the UK received their original artwork and absolutely LOVE it.  Mother Nature is an extraordinary palette to inspire a person. You have an amazing talent Trudy. Thank you.

My Tawny Frogmouth Table Runner and matching Tea Towel arrived safely and in a short time. The design and colours look great! Thank you so much.

There are so many reasons I love this tea towel: good quality fabric that gets better & better with use; who doesn't love a Tawny and this one is perfectly placed at the bottom half which means it is always on display.

I loved your online class! As a beginner, it was perfect to be able to re-watch the processes. The format is easy to follow, like an interactive book with great documentation. Trudy is a great teacher, and her passion for printmaking shows. A well-produced and thoughtful course. I can't wait to continue my lino cutting journey!

Susannah Lowe

I’m thrilled with my very first linocuts I made after doing your online Intro Course! Thank you for inspiring me to get creative again!

Amanda
★★★★★

This is a really comprehensive workshop! The video segments are not too long, and Trudy shows how to do each stage, step by step, with downloadable worksheets. Even if you don't want to actually make this book yourself, the videos are delightful to watch. You can view at your own pace, and the resulting concertina book is truly beautiful. I have done this workshop with Trudy in person, and this informative online version provides everything you need to know to make a unique and beautiful artist book. Trudy, I look forward to more of your online workshops!
