Horsey horses

I went to see Heather Jansch, a local artist, who makes sculptures out of driftwood and old oak

Mostly she makes horses.

The photo makes these figures look more impressive than they actually are in reality; close up they seem abit roughshod or ramshackle.

Apparently she makes loadsamoney on comission for installation pieces around the world (as much as £50,000 a pop i’ve been told) There’s one at the Eden Project in Cornwall.

On the way back i saw  a real horse

White stallion in buttercup meadow i think i’ll call this.

It’ll cost you 50 pence.
