This week my entry is about the contents of the window. In Ashburton there is a window featuring a sculpture by Heather Jansch. She has become well known for her driftwood horses, but unless you live in the UK I doubt you would know of her.
Have a look at her website, its really stunning work, my phone shot doesn’t do it justice.

About Lucid Gypsy
Gilly Mbachu Goldsworthy is a mum to two kids that are supposed to be grown up and mma to a four year old and a new born baby boy. None of that means that I am grown up though! I love writing – travel and quite edgy fiction – and being an OU student for a degree which remains to be seen. What I do best though is counselling; I’ve been privileged to work with many people through big changes.

Here’s this week’s entry: http://goomfh.wordpress.com/2012/11/08/thursdays-windows-week-8/
That’s beautiful! What a talented lady. You have a good eye for a nice window too, Gilly
How cool is that. I love artists and what they see and can create.
wow, stunning, thanks for showing us gilly!
That is one impressive horse sculpture – puts my hanging driftwood mobile into perspective !
Like the way you managed to show a close up of inside the window…without your reflection in there too taking the shot .
Gilly, this is fascinating. She is really talented, isn’t she? My dad would be so interested in this because he loves creating with wood. Great “window” photo! Your link came up on Week 7′s post, so I re-posted it on this new week’s as well.
Wow, I think that is the most original piece of art I have ever seen!!
Alas there are now some feeble attempts to copy her work!
That is amazing work Gilly! Had never heard of Heather before, thanks for the link.
Wow, her sculptures are amazing. I love her website. I’ve never seen animals made of driftwood before!!
I love your entry. Your photograph is wonderful and I love the artwork of this artist. She is very creative. Is there any other work of hers on display?
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
Did you check the link to her website? I think most is privately owned – lucky people! She takes part in Open Studio each year, an event where artists and crafts people in Devon open their work places to visitors.
Great photos, I love the driftwood statue.
What a great choice for the challenge, Gilly. That horse sculpture is amazing. How clever and creative.
Heather does beautiful work. I think I’ve seen a picture of her work somewhere. Thanks for posting.
She has been in some of the posh magazines and newspapers and is getting well known here at least.
OMG…she is amazing. What a talent
Yep, you really have to know horses to create as she does. Glad you like it!
Stunning piece of work! Love it!
I thnk this is excellent, Gilly.
Art is art and her work is just impressive. I am also drawn to driftwood. how they made about, their shape, the places they’d been. Very talented artist!
