Welcome to Trude Kjølen art

I was born in Drammen Norway in 1975. I have always had an intrest for art and has always been spiritual, and I was encuraged to start painting in an early age, but a death in the family made me loose hope and intrest in art for a long time.

In 2019 after hearing about my former art intrest, and that i had lost interest, my son whent out and bought me paint and canvas for christmas, and encouraged me to start again

In my younger years, i studied art at artschool in Norway and had for a long time Bruce Naigls as a mentor. after my 25 year break, and starting up again, i meet Jarl Goli that became a friend and mentor for me, and I have now had the oppertunity to be able to display my art in Spain, Japan, USA and Italy.
