NEW ….. The Street Collection

Miniature Paintings

I have been working on a new series of miniature paintings and I finished today. I’m calling this new set of six dolls houses size paintings “The Street Collection”

It could just as easily be the Village Collection or the Shop Collection but to me, today it feels like it’s all part of a street.

I hope you like them, I had a lot of fun with this project.

We have …… top row “Rose Café “ and “Boutique” – Ball Gowns and the Florist

Second Row is the “Pub” And then “Treats” – ice creams and Cakes, and on the corner “Joy” – dress shop

Each of these paintings are 2 by 2 1/4 inches, all original and painted using my encaustic Hot wax paints on card supports.The only addition was the Rose Café where I have added the text with a ink pen.

These are available to buy (at the time of writing, please contact me to buy They are £12 each plus shipping. I ship worldwide from Southend England.

New miniature dollhouse paintings

An Eclectic Artist

I have been painting lots of new subjects these past few weeks and I thought maybe a post to show the diverse Themes I have working on and I fully admit I am a very eclectic Artist.

Today I painted the Strawberry cottage, which is shown here in a gold effect frame, size 2 x 2 1/2 inches. The Peacock in full feather was a challenge and is a very pretty piece in a frame 3 x 4 inches, one of my larger miniature paintings and works as a statement piece in a miniature dollhouse or as a piece of miniature art in a life size home

Lots of new paintings listed and many now on their way to new homes …..

Some of these are sold now but if you see a subject you would like please get in touch and I maybe able to paint a commission in a similar style for you  no two of my paintings are the same, as each is original and unique.

Miniature Paintings Celebrating VE Day

These are my new paintings, there are three pieces with a theme, miniature dollhouse art, shown here in my 1:12th Art Gallery, inspired by the VE Day celebrations of VE 75 here in England in 2020. Victory in Europe (VE) Day on 8 May 1945 is the day celebrating the end of World War II.

“Fly By Poppies”

Displayed and sold in a gold effect frame the overall size being 2 1/4 by 2 3/4 inches this landscape has aircraft flying over a poppy field.

“Wave”

Vintage clothed people standing in a poppy field, waving and waving flags as a plane flys over head, the size of this piece is 2 1/8 by 1 5/8th inches.

“Street Party”

A misty impression of a back drop with Big Ben in the distance gives this piece a sense of the day, Londoners having a party in the street dressed in vintage clothes, they could be of the time or more modern times dressed for a vintage fashion party, you decide. This piece 3 1/2 by 2 1/2 inches so a statement size piece for a dollhouse, I have sold many paintings this size for 1:12th or larger Scale dolls houses plus it is ACEO size so could be a nice addition for a collection.

The Gallery Miniature Art By Hazel Rayfield

So today I’ve been in The Gallery……

The Gallery is my 1:12th Miniature Art Gallery that my husband Adrian built for me a few years ago, and as I’m sure many miniature and dollhouse creators and collectors will be able to relate to …… it is forever evolving.

Adrian has never built a full miniature property before, he is very patient and meticulous making a beautiful miniature property that I have filled with tiny pieces of my art. I just love it !!!

As I say it is evolving and I like to add things and change thing around from time to time. Today I have been replacing some older pictures and adding a few in the gaps, there isn’t much wall space left now !

Just some of today’s changes, the parrot paintings replace the flowers pots and the roses replace the vase of blooms.

How about a little tour ….. Please see at the bottom of this post a tour of The Gallery today once I finished my picture hanging.

Filming yourself hanging a painting on the wall of a miniature property is not easy lol
