were plans to proceed with the Windsor project, finding another sculptor to complete the work by June 2013. Work As a sculptor, Wynne's chief inspirations were the natural environment and classical (especially Etruscan) art. Most of her work was figurative, showing various forms of animal and female human figures. In 1988 her fountain Doves Rising was added to the Peace Park in Hounslow. A lifelong rider, she made a number of equine statues, and in 1989 Prudential Property gave her a commission for three bronze horses to stand by the steps at Minster Court in the City of London. Since nicknamed Sterling, Dollar and Yen, the group is ten feet high, weighs fourteen tonnes, and has been compared with the horses of St Mark's Basilica in Venice. In 1991 her Family of Goats, for the London Docklands Development Corporation, was erected at Rotherhithe. Other work includes a group called White Horses, at the centre of a restaurant on Queen Elizabeth 2, which shows four horses riding the waves, "Europa and the Bull", a full-size bronze figure, and the three huge obelisks rising through the Bluewater shopping centre at Greenhithe in Kent. She held solo exhibitions in Salisbury in 1988 and 1991, at Broadgate in 1993, and in Winchester in 1997. In 2012 her bronze Penelope Waiting was the signature piece for an exhibition of sculpture at Avebury Manor.
