Watercolour exhibition at The RSA, Edinburgh which runs until Friday 18th December


Hazel Campbell has lived and worked in Galloway for most of her adult life, and through attendance at painting classes over a number of years she has developed her own vigorous style of painting. She has a loose, bold approach, working mainly in oil and gouache, using local Galloway countryside as a stimulus for landscape painting. Still life and flowers are also subjects, and like the landscapes, are being treated in an increasingly broad manner.
Hazel runs painting schools during the summer from her studio on the family farm. These are proving to be very popular, with her students having scope to paint in the adjoining garden and surrounding countryside. Click here for information on Hazel's summer schools.
Have had a very stimulating visit from a couple of friends this afternoon. Bob has lectured me on not letting things get in the way of my painting. Things like Spring Fling, family, wedding, marmalade making etc. After they left, I actually painted a reasonable picture .
It was just what I needed, as there has been very little progress over the last 6 months.
