"The Green Man" Group Art Exhibit - Part II
My 2nd submission is a "Skogsrå" roly poly wood chime doll.
Legend has it that a skogsrå is a Scandinavian forest spirit who appears as a beautiful woman who lures men into the woods. Often, such travelling men will then disappear - never to be seen again. While the skogsrå is beautiful on the front, her back side consists of a tail or a hollow tree trunk.

"The Green Man" Group Art Exhibit - Part I
One of the submissions I did for the show is named, "The Green Man and the Nature Spirits Entourage". It is a 5 piece nesting doll set with the following cast of characters: "The Green Man", "Elder Mother", "Lunantishee", "Tree Sprite" and the "Pillywiggin".
Here are some photos of the process:
I made a felt wreath for "The Green Man" to wear:
:) Happy Weekend to you!

This Week...
I managed to complete a 2nd piece for "The Green Man" group art exhibit tonight (!!!), which I'm excited about...
And I finished another pack of Polaroids...
Taking photos of animals can be tricky, as you can see 2 very blurry wasted polas...however I am *SO* in love with this by Japanese photographer Miyoko Ihara.
Happy Thursday!

July 4th - "The Green Man" Group Art Exhibit//Vernissage
If you're in Toronto, please come and check out "The Green Man" group art exhibit that I'm a part of...
My friend Steve Wilson explains the theme best:
"The Green Man is an ancient motif representing the cycle of the seasons, transformation and the rebirth of spring after a long winter. Most often found carved in wood and stone in European gothic cathedrals, he is represented by the face of a man made up of foliage or spewing leaves.
He is enigmatic. He is misunderstood. He is benevolent. He is a primeval architype. His origins are shrouded in the mists of time..."

When: Next Thurs - JULY 4th, 7:00 p.m.
Where: 156 Augusta Avenue, Kensington Market
Hope to see you there! xoxo
