Green
Men and Green Women are symbols of
irrepressible life. They are found
in the bosses and sculptures of
almost every cathedral in Europe.
They are one of those pagan symbols
assimilated into Christian art.
Therefore, these symbols convey good
energy to a house. They make
wonderful garden pieces. To make a
Green Man or Green Woman, students
will start with a half-face or bas
relief, employing the techniques for
sculpting the human face using
sacred geometry. Then with real
leaves, students will mold leafy
hair for the piece. The end result
will be a beautiful wall hanging for
house or garden. |
