Hazel Money – October 2024
A near capacity audience once again were well entertained by Hazel Money as she produced a Pen & Watercolour Wash painting of a town scene based on her “Kit in a handbag” process and simple techniques for different pen styles!
About Hazel:
Hazel has lived in Derbyshire all her life and has therefore a special connection with the landscape. By keeping to a small scale, she uses this “restriction” to help her distil the essence of a scene. Although she works mainly in acrylics for their versatility when out of doors, usually finishing the painting all in one sitting, she also uses oil paints whenever practical. She usually carries watercolours with her and enjoys their adaptability for quick colour sketching. Using a very limited palette, she depicts the landscape of the hills and valleys, moors and fields. She paints whatever stops her in her tracks, preferring the subtleties of an unusual, overlooked view to the popular scene.
Hazel studied a BA in fine art at Aberystwyth University in 2005 – 2008, focussing on trees in the landscape for her final year exhibition.
