The Green Man and coloured walks

 Hi everyone I have a new journal page for Elle's Art Journal Journey theme 'Fairytales, Folklore and Fables - Tell Me A Story' 

The Green Man has many different stories told about him  - see here and also here.

A lot of old English churches have Green man faces carved somewhere in them but if you have followed the links you will see that he may have originated in Pagan times.

It is quite fun to see how many different ways off carving him there are.

My Green Man is a Lavinia stamp, I stamped him and lots of different coloured leaves over my page with some scraps of paper.

I mentioned that we have had a few walks lately..

Lyme Park

Leaves on the water and a reflection from the tree above

It was lovely warm sunny day and we went without our coats

We spotted some Fungi beside the path

Fletcher Moss

We think this tree has died

Styal Mill Gardens

Just for Fern lovers....

    

There's been a lot of clearing being done 

We came down the steps this time.

There's still a lot of green around

Fungi here too

I think I must have kept you far too long.

Thanks for looking, Chris
