Hazel Thomson

Hazel Thomson – “I have travelled to various parts of the world, and met all sorts of people in the arts, and sciences and people who are very spiritual. I am always learning in life and observing the obvious and not so obvious. I am always looking to conceive, cultivate and embrace new concepts and ideas in my art work. I go on walkabout around the country, observing places in all seasons and different times of the day. People have described my style of painting as classical and natural with a hint of contemporary and a new depth of atmosphere. I have sold many paintings in the UK and overseas.”
