This is the press release that is generated by ArtFairEast for me to ‘send out to my contacts’ … apologies in advance for the mugshot, that’s the only one they wanted to use because it shows me ‘in the studio with my work’ (oi vey).
South Norfolk -Based Artist Janice Scott Selected for Prestigious Art Fair
A South Norfolk based Artist has been selected from international submissions to exhibit at one the UK’s major regional art fairs.
Janice Scott will be taking her artworks to Art Fair East in Norfolk. The fair is held in the medieval splendour of St Andrews Hall, Norwich from 1st-3rd December 2023.
Janice Scott said: ‘I am thrilled to have been selected for Art Fair East 2023. This will be a chance to reach new audiences with my work and I am excited to be showing in a fair that has already exhibited international names like Banksy and Nando Kallweit. I plan on displaying artworks themed around my work with mixed media and especially raw earth pigments.’
Art Fair East’s co-founder Will Teather said: “We are delighted to have Janice Scott taking part in our 2023 event. We always have more submissions than we can accommodate which ensures that the quality remains high.”
Founded, and curated by established artists Will Teather and Brian Korteling, Art Fair East has become acknowledged as one of the leading regional fairs in the country. Now in its ninth year it showcases contemporary art from around the UK and overseas. As artists themselves, Will and Brian are passionate about getting more people interested in original contemporary art and helping artists to make a living from their work. The 2022 fair attracted thousands of visitors from around the country.
Janice Scott has been producing art on a professional level for several decades. Here is a snippet from her blog:
‘I am inspired by and seem to concentrate on depicting natural forms or elements of nature into my paintings. I was born in Yorkshire, England but spent the larger part of my life in South Africa, where I experienced vast wilderness areas, such as the Karoo and Southern Drakensberg mountains. I am now back in the UK, living in South Norfolk. I work with many different materials and techniques, including printing. I use soft pastels (a lot), acrylics, oils and other liquid medium. I am currently exploring earth pigments and have found an almost visceral connection with these materials.’

The event in sponsored by Musker McIntyre & Chadwicks.
