*Does a hippiemove, trying to see the Green Man, ending up staring him right in his GREEN eyes*
Ouuh! The colours! The COLOURS! Can't do anything but love the colours! Yeah, I'm a colour freak, I know^.^ That's why I'm not very good with shading and stuff..heh..
This pic ROCKS!! *Does another hippiemove*
I'm sure he has got a lot of woodladies!=)

You are a GREAT artist, Brian.
Keep it up!^!=)

Fabulous, brilliant psychedelic 60's colors in this wonderful Greenman! Hope you won't mind that I have added him to my "Gotta Love The Greenman" tour!!!

Now you know I love this pic...I added it to my Greenman tour (which is down right now, while I repair some of the links...*sighs*...one more thing to do...). I really enjoy your colorful take on the Greenman!

:-) Brian L. Husted replies: "Thanks, I'd be honored to have it included as part of your Green Man tour."

Ive actually known worshipers of the greenman, and i am sure they would love this piece. The colors in the bg are a bit psychodelic but the ones on the actual greenman are all naturaly occuring colors of foliage. Very well done, you did the greenman well.

:-) Brian L. Husted replies: "Yeah, the colors in the back ground are a bit intense. I've thought about playing around with photo shop and toning them down a little bit."

Love the wild fall colors!....Makes me think of my biology class learning about how photosynthesis works.

:-) Brian L. Husted replies: "I had fun with this. I'm in the process of doing a new version of this on the computer. It should be in my next update in a week or so."

This is a wonderful picture!
You know, could this could actually be the way he looks in Autumn...he can't always be green can he if all the other trees aren't because isn't he supposed to blend in with them? Anyway keep up the good work!

:-) Brian L. Husted replies: "Yeah, this one is so Autumn-like I've thought about making it a series and doing other versions of him for Winter, Spring, & Summer."

I love this one its soooo colorful!!!!The face is actually kind of scary kind of like father nature looking down at creatures

:-) Brian L. Husted replies: "I guess he is a bit scary, the newer CG version of him isn't quite as intense looking."

The Green Man’s just come back from Mardi Gras and boy does he have some wild stories! *lol*

I love the 60’s colors on this one. You should market this design on tie-dyed t-shirts!

This is incredibly amazing, in an amazingly incredible sort of way. I love the colours! And the leaves! (...just an interesting observation...in an observationally interesting way! lol)
