Sad news on my FB page today. Only just seen it.

She was a lovely lady, I had the privilege of meeting her at one of her open days a few years ago.
RIP Heather, you will be sorely missed in the Art World.

Re: Heather Jansch

Although I know little about modern art, I thought her name was familiar to me ..... and here's why:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heather_Jansch

While an art student at Walthamstow College of Art in 1967 she met the musician Roy Harper. It was Harper who introduced her to the guitarist Bert Jansch, who she later married.
Back in the old days, I met Roy Harper and Bert Jansch but never Heather.

Nevertheless, a sad loss for all who did know her .....

Re: Heather Jansch

Didn't she do some lovely horse sculptures from driftwood?

R.I.P. Heather.

I believe this is one of hers. Taken about ten years ago at the Eden Project.

Re: Heather Jansch

Look on her website there are lots of her horses on there, though at present they aren't selling any, guess it has to go to probate.
Very sadly.
