Elizabeth Jane Evans (31 December 1946 – 8 June 2012) was a New Zealand artist. ==Biography== Born in Nelson in 1946, Evans was educated at Nelson College for Girls. She enrolled at the Ilam School of Fine Arts in 1965, and the following year began studying at Waltham Forest Art College in northeast London.
