Hazel Arnold

Hazel Arnold is a Cree painter focusing in Native visual art.  Hazel grew up in Ontario and Regina, Saskatchewan and spent most of her summers on Gordon’s Reserve in Saskatchewan where her passion for art was sparked by Sanford Fisher, an amputee who painted with his mouth. After taking a break from paitning for over 40 years, she returned to creating art in 2024 and received the Downtown Eastside Small Arts Grant.  She wants to expand her education in fine arts by exploring other mediums and learning different techniques from other artists and would eventually like to present her work in other galleries in the future.
