Painting the Green Maiden

The Magical World of Tylluan Penry

Paganism, the green man, solitary witchcraft, spells and festivals.... plus just about anything else that crops up along the way!I have written a book, 'Seeking the Green' about my personal pagan path, which was published by Capall Bann last year (2008) Their website is at : http://www.capallbann.co.uk/(copy and past into your browser window).

This year they have also published another book of mine, 'The Magical Properties of Plants and how to find them.'

I am a regular speaker at the Witchfests run by the CHildren of Artemis. You can find out more about these events by checking out the Children of Artemis main website.

Painting the Green Maiden

by tylluanpenry @ Friday, 28. Mar, 2008 – 20:49:36

Today I spent some time painting a watercolour of the Green Maiden (I'll try and photograph it when finished and post it here) I decided that when I speak at the Wales Witchfest I am going to bring a little present for one of the hardy souls who turn up to hear me.... hence I'm painting and framing the Green Maiden and will do a free raffle to determine who wins it.

What do you think of that idea?

  That's a good idea, but I think I'll avoid any money changing hands on this, just a gift from me...

  Thank you Mira - I've been trying to scan the picture in since writing this and it's not looking quite the way I'd hoped so I might actually redo it!

It sounds like a great idea to me! I don't know who the Green Maiden is though.

  Thank you! On my (pagan) path, The Green Maiden and the Green Man are life force that makes Nature grow.
