Competition: Win a Veta Gorner etching

Veta is back from Sweden and busy finishing new work for the upcoming season of art fairs including Affordable Art Fair in London, Amsterdam Art Fair and Edinburgh Art Fair. She has recently started a diary on her web page (www.vetagorner.com) where you can follow her progress and see snippets of new images.

Also on her website : you are invited to participate in Veta's "artist's block" competition.

Veta needs your help! A competition for the best title of a new etching (pictured). The winner of the best title (will be chosen by Veta) will get free entry tickets to the Affordable Art Fair (optional) and an artist proof of the image. A great opportunity to acquire a print from a sought after artist!

The closing day is 19th of October. The winner will be contacted on the 20th of October.
