The Silver Branch started on this fantastical path with "Green Girl Boxes", a beautiful take on the classic Green Man. Why "Green Girl"? Well, when I started out sculpting faces, they all looked rather feminine! It just didn't seem right to call them men and the lovely forest nymphs, the green girls, were realized! Today, I sculpt both Green Girl art and Green Man art for decoration, shadow boxes, jewelry boxes, tree sculptures, pendants and ornaments.
Every jewelry box is hand sanded, stained, freehand painted with celtic knotwork, felted and adorned with a hand sculpted and painted face. Each green girl/man comes with a certificate of authenticity and is numbered and titled!
