The Green Men

For whatever reason, a recent visitor to our studio in these times of seclusion has been the Green Man. The first one appeared very naturally a few months ago, but has now been followed by many others in quick succession.  Creating these 3 dimensional pieces has been cathartic and we hope they will take their place in other people’s homes to bring comfort and solace there.  In Celtic folklore, the Green Man is associated with rebirth, representing the cycle of growth every spring. With the time we have just experienced in isolation, it seems as if a little rebirth might be in order for us all right now!
