Hazel Adams
Since graduating from the University of the Arts London and the University of Westminster, Hazel has focused her attentions on wildlife illustrations to reflect the passion she holds for the natural world, with the intention of inspiring others.

Taking two distinct forms, her illustrations offer detailed realism and character based subjects, the latter being explored through clever use of colour and texture.

Having recently completed work for BBC Wildllife Magazine, a 'World Encyclopedia of Moths and Butterflies' and children's book 'The Trolls of Platt Wood', Hazel is currently focusing her attention on creating imagery for Oxford University Press and their children's classics section.

Hazel's work offers a variety of approaches leading from subtle scientific studies, to the quirky and lovable, often coupled with the unusual and atmospheric.
