Normally I don't plug charity events on this blog unless they're to do with some form of cancer research [I've lost too many good people to the big C]. But this appeal from regular Vicious Imagery reader Ian Stacey sounds like a good cause to me... ART FOR HEARTS
I’m currently organising an auction to raise funds for research done by the transplant team at Great Ormond Street Hospital. This is a cause very dear to my family - our son’s life was saved by a heart transplant four weeks after birth. The auction is original art and signed digital prints by children’s illustrators. I know this is an unusual subject for your blog but we would appreciate any publicity we could get.
The ART FOR HEARTS auction features work donated by children’s illustrators such as Korky Paul, Lynne Chapman and An Vrombaut. Most of the art is original although there are also some signed digital prints and screen prints too. All proceeds will help fund research by the transplant team at GOSH. Transplanted organs do not have the same life expectancy as non-transplanted organs and the team is seeking ways to combat this.
Full details of the auction are available to view here. It will run on Ebay for a week from Monday, November 2nd.

Good evening, do you have any further information regarding the artist who made this print? I know it's by Emma but I am trying to find out more details as I would like to see more of her work..
Thank you
Sorry, but ten years on I've got nothing except the original link through to the Art for Hearts auction blog: http://art-for-hearts.blogspot.com/
Hunting around there might lead you to the answers? Wish I could be more helpful!
