RIP Hazel Evans
We are very sad to say that Hazel Evans, the co-founder of Arts in Provence died on May 1st, aged 88. Many people will know her from her hosting of the welcome drinks on Saturday evenings, an occasion that she never lost her enthusiasm for. She started by running painting and writing courses as an experiment with her friend Anne Christie in 1989, but since she was working full time as a journalist she felt her talents lay else where and David and I took it on from her in 1990.

ReplyDeleteSorry to hear the news about Hazel. I only met her a few times, but she always struck me as an interesting woman. I know you will miss her, my condolences to you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI am SO sorry to hear that Hazel died. She was a real character. She had charm, wit and and plenty of funny (and not so funny) stories to relay. I will remember her in a large brimmed straw hat with a red ribbon. RIP
ReplyDeleteLiz and David: I too was sorry to hear about Hazel's death. I loved her humorous paintings and felt privileged to have seen them. She will be missed by all who knew her.
ReplyDeleteI hope you two will continue to hosts art groups. You provide a wonderful respite and sanctuary from the rest of the world.
