John Hazel, a self-taught painter hailing from rural Central California, whose works are in watercolors having cultivated talent through sketching, drawing and lifelong creative exploration. The style blends realism with imaginative interpretation, always leaving room for experimentation and whatever technique it takes to achieve the desired finished product. Works reflect life lessons using nature to conveying patience, authenticity, and quiet encouragement aimed at inspiring positive reflections.
When I picked up a brush and painted my first watercolor in 2016 at age 67 I did not comprehend the impact of that moment on my life and the new paths down which it has taken me. I never intended to embark on a path of publicly displaying or selling any of my paintings, because they were for my own enjoyment. But, with time a conviction developed to share beyond friends, family and the walls of my home what have been gifted to create.
