About Sally Green
I am a UK-based artist with a Fine Art degree, whose work is rooted in a deep fascination with the natural world..
My paintings have been exhibited in galleries, community spaces and annual group shows, including site-specific and spiritually reflective exhibitions.
Alongside my studio practice, I facilitate community art workshops exploring flowers, nature-based processes and symbolic and ritual elements..
From vibrant, wild nature to the most delicate of botanicals — my work moves between worlds. Through lyrical, expressive paintings and immersive flower installations, I blur the line between art and environment, inviting you to step inside and feel.
Painting opens my mind to possibility — a space where problems dissolve and new thinking emerges. Working with dried flowers and botanical arrangements brings me back to earth, humbling me with the reminder that some things simply need to be honoured, not solved.
Returning to the senses. Looking down to ponder the humility and sovereignty of nature.
I have been foraging for years — learning the quiet language of hedgerows, woodland floors and seasonal gifts. Walking with reverence through folklore and tradition, understanding that plants have always been more than beautiful. They have been medicine, ritual, memory and meaning.
Nature has been my deepest source of healing. The seasons my compass. Through every turning of the year I find myself oriented — rooted again in what truly matters.
Flowers have always been used to honour. Birth and death, love and grief, celebration and mourning — blooms mark every sacred threshold of human life. It makes me want to create art that remembers. Art that slows us down and calls us back to something ancient and true within ourselves.To remind us that we are nature. That we belong to it. That in returning to our senses — we come home.
Survival and honour.
Painting is my survival language — instinctive, urgent, alive. But flowers are teaching me to honour. To slow down. To hold something fragile with care and gratitude. In the contrast between these two practices lives the question at the heart of my work — how do we truly honour nature?
