Process (Mask Series No. 2)

The Green Man is an entity that exists in many cultures, but is perhaps most developed in the traditions of  Ireland and Great Britain. Portrayed in both Christian and pagan artwork for centuries, the Green Man serves as a personification of earth, forest, and growth.

This is the second piece (in progress) from the ongoing, yet-to-be-named mask series; the first piece has undergone extensive reworking and the third entry has been put to canvas. I'm very excited about working with a wide array of aesthetic design and painting techniques with each mask, and it's already taken me in a very different direction from where I started.

Process (Mask Series No. 1)

The TR painting is mostly done but still camera shy, so this is beginning of the new series using a lot more mixing of experimental media and acrylic painting. This guy here is where I am on the first.
