It does not seem like spring if you venture out. There may be daffodils and crocuses blooming, but the wind is at its most spiteful and icicles are forming on the shed roof. However, for our next project we are to consider celebrations of spring, May Day, Green Man, Jack in the Green etc.
To my mind the Green Man is of woodland and spring is definitely feminine, so I am going with Flora, Roman goddess, and the festival of Floralia which is the same time as May Day. She is going to be a green woman. I think I will have to work hard at avoiding the twee or that style of fantasy art that I loathe. Coloured pencil will be my medium.
The sun is shining today but my hands feel as though they might fall off for the cold. What are you making in this project?
