Trudy 'Trudalarr' Whitcombe
Born and bred in the South Wales Valleys, I’ve been very honoured to have been granted a position with the MWB due to my friendship with Dave and being lucky enough to have been one of his ex-pupils.
Having grown up in such beautiful surroundings and close knit mining community I soon found love for depicting my surroundings, even if not always in an obvious fashion!
I’ve probably turned my hand to every conceivable art form over the years, but have found myself in painting and photography, and have a new surprise project coming up which I hope to share with you all once the first draft is completed.
