Veta Gorner in her studio

Veta Gorner

Gorner was born in 1974 in St. Petersburg, Russia where she grew up and received her training as a printmaker. She currently works from her studio near Stamford, England. She was elected to the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers 2016.

Veta’s original printmaking style merges the art of traditional etching with the sculptural qualities achieved by clever manipulation of matrix zinc plates, inks and paper. Many of her recent prints are the result of experimenting with jesmonite resin casts from metal etching plates which capture more three dimensional textures.

She has won numerous awards for her work, and is included in public collections such as University of Wales, Aberystwyth; Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, and Citibank.
