My painting of the #GreenMan bringing spring to Chapel Meadow (the field opposite my house) continues slowly...

I've managed to make joyful progress of the figure of #RobinGoodfellow (as Shakespeare called the Green Man). My figure is inspired by the pose of Arthur Rackham's illustration of the Pied Piper.

I'm hoping I'll get this finished and framed to show at my #Exhibition of #paintings for #OxfordshireArtweeks in mid-May - only 5 weeks away now...

If you read my post about a major mythical figure in British culture, you'll see how he's appeared in so many forms over the centuries.

Then read my anthology of short stories describing my version of events that transformed him from trickster to embittered warrior ~ to become the protagonist in my trilogy.
