Lilian Buchanan (1914-2005) 1 Feb 2005 This obituary by Joan Weedon first appeared in Eynsham Record 22, 2005 pages 3-4

The four artists of the Buchanan family, Constance, Lilian, David and Norman, living together in Eynsham, and working in the village for more than forty years, formed a uniquely inspiring and memorable group.

Lilian, and her life of art, was the founding source of the Eynsham Arts Group in 1970. She had a wonderful talent, which she endeavoured to share with others in her art classes at the local school over several years. There is no doubt that Eynsham people have been the fortunate beneficiary of a very remarkable woman.

There is a longer tribute in our ‘Former Residents’ feature.
