Trudi Jacobson

My explorations in art started fairly recently. I first delved into artist trading cards and then became fascinated with artist's books after seeing some at a book fair in Northampton, MA in late 2021. These books can take a variety of exciting forms, and the content can be solely graphic or can include text as well. Mine are all editions of one, and other than a series of tales chronicling the adventures of Owl, they are unique pieces based on deliberations of how form and content might enhance one another.

I have begun to explore watercolor, and most recently, pastel. I take classes in both media with Theresa Somaio, and have also learned a great deal from a series of personalized sessions with Eden Compton.

For more examples of my work, please go to the Art Gallery on my website.
