      The “Green Man” is the dimly remembered symbol of an ancient spirit of Nature, recognized and revered by many civilizations and adopted by many religions.


      His name means the Green One or Verdant One, he is the voice of inspiration to the aspirant and committed artist.


      He can come as a white light or the gleam on a blade of grass, but more often as an inner mood.


      The sign of his presence is the ability to work or experience with tireless enthusiasm beyond one’s normal capacities. In this there may be a link across cultures,… one reason for the enthusiasm of the medieval sculptors for the Green Man may be that he was the source of inspiration
