As well as discovering new artists, sometimes it is just as satisfying to see great work by established favourites. To warm your hearts this winter, The Hatfield Hines Gallery in Holt is staging a show of new work by some of their most popular artists.
Series on show include Irish cottages and crofts by the Scottish colourist Edwin Scotterz: these are recent works showing that at the age of 90 his refreshing, bold work shows no signs of abating.

Also to tempt collectors is an unusual series of works on paper by the Lavenham-born Roy Turner Durrant 1925 – 1998, who, having studied at Camberwell during this period under John Minton is now an established collectable name in the London galleries and auction houses.

Got a local vista you value? Love your landscape? Heart your horizon?
This year, ‘small but perfectly formed coastal art gallery’, Hatfield Hines of Holt are holding an exciting compeition to discover the best loved view of Norfolk. And should you be lucky enough to win, the rather brilliant prize is an original oil painting of the view by Norwich-born artist David Baxter worth around £400.
‘We’re always keen to show visitors new views of Norfolk’ says Gallery owner Clare Hatfield, ‘so – inspired by this year’s Holt Festival – we’re on a quest to find Norfolk’s scenic top ten.’
The survey was kicked-off by a nomination from celebrity chef-patron of the Michelin-starred Morston Hall, Galton Blackiston, who told the Gallery ‘My favourite view is seen on the drive from Langham to Morston. At one point in the journey you get a perfect view from Blakeney Point to the Watch House. On a summer’s evening it’s just fantastic and I love it!’
Everyone who takes part in the summer scenic survey will be entered into a prize draw in September. The lucky winner will receive a specially commissioned oil painting of their own favourite view by popular Norfolk landscape artist David Baxter.
To enter, download a form here and post it back to the gallery, pick up a form at Hatfield Hines Gallery on Fish Hill in Holt, or visit their website and enter online.
The ‘scenic survey’ is running now, with a deadline for the receipt of entries of 15th September 2010.

Aspects of Holt.
Expect a buzz around Holt throughout the week of Sunday 25th – Saturday 31st July as the 2010 Holt Summer Festival kicks off with a host of fantastic events across this lovely Georgian Market Town. An eclectic programme of theatre, dance, music, literature, cinema and comedy means that there will be something to appeal to all tastes and ages. Plenty of free and children’s events as well will have Holt showing that it is just as capable of putting on a show as its nearby City-of-Culture-2013 candidate Norwich.
One particular highlight is the Holt Summer Festival Art Trail. Encouraging you to discover the fabulous range of fine art in Holt, several Holt galleries are holding special exhibitions and will be staying open later on Tuesday 27th and Thursday 29th July.

One such gallery is The Hatfield Hines Gallery, which will be running an exhibition of work by Naomi Munuo. Clare Hatfield who runs the gallery says “The exhibition highlights the vibrant life studies and surreal still lifes of Central St. Martin’s and Goldsmith’s-trained Munuo, whose works have featured at The Royal Academy and Art Fusion-Miami. Ipwsich-based Munuo is inspired by the human figure, illustrating it using richly textured, irregular shapes in works which often involve layered collage techniques. We’re hoping that these fantastic, contemporary works will tempt people to visit”.
