hazel

Hazel Jarvis grew up in England but moved to New York in the 1983. During the 1990s Hazel lived in Tokyo, Japan and studied traditional Japanese painting with Shoko Ohta, a fourth generation Japanese Artist.  The highly decorative Japanese approach to nature has been a strong influence on her work. In 1999 Hazel relocated to Connecticut where she now works and teaches.  Her work is held in the Hunt Collection for Botanical Illustration, Carnegie-Mellon.
