"As an artist. I find inspiration in the world around me. I love to capture the land, family, friends, and animals that bring me joy in everyday life. Painting allows me to experience my love and zest for life in a more immersive way. When painting I reflect on the things I love, gaining a deeper appreciation for the everyday pleasures."
Trudy Stubson is a Fargo Moorhead-based artist and art teacher. Born in Mora, MN, Trudy moved to Moorhead to pursue her bachelor's degree in art education. After college, she found employment as an art teacher in the area where she is currently an active artist and FMVA member.
A participant in many regional art shows, Trudy’s artwork is available and can be found in downtown Fargo at Gallery4. Stubson's choice of mediums is oil paint, watercolor, and acrylic. However, the choice of medium does expand too based on the subject and what she feels would best capture the mood.
Stubson creates art with attention to detail and patience. She uses thin layers of paint to create an effect that makes the paintings appear that they are lit from within. The colors are rich and bold. Each painting is original and created from her own personal photos and life experiences.
