BUDDING artists from Hartlepool showed off their talents in a painting competition.
Children from schools around the town created a range of colourful and original designs when they took part in one of the regional heats of the 2004 Children's Calendar Painting Competition run by Britain in Bloom.
The heat winners will receive their prizes at Hartlepool Town Hall Theatre, in Raby Road, on Tuesday, May 11, at 4pm.
They will be presented with gift vouchers by councillor Bob Flintoff, a member of the judging panel.
Coun Flintoff said: "All the young people who took part put a lot of effort into their paintings and came up with some great designs. They are a credit to the town and I congratulate them all."
The first prize winners in each category will go on to represent the town in the regional finals of the competition in Newcastle.
