Hi,Well I took another bike ride today. This time I spotted a gold mushroom. It's actually the same kind as the red, but it is metallic gold. Both are hallucinogenic and can be poisonous if eaten. The name is amanita muscaria. I did bring the gold one home and incorporated it into the little watercolor with an oak leaf and and some acorns.I enjoyed painting them..
Talk to you soon,Diana

That came out lovely Diana. I never saw an amanita that golden color before in the wild. Now I will have to pay closer attention!

These mushrooms sure make for a lovely painting, Diana. Love the shadow play too.
ReplyDeleteLove you psychedelic mushrooms, Diana! They really have made a beautiful painting.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I also love your Lady Ga Ga Chicken in your previous post. Delightful!
ReplyDeleteDear Diana - what a gorgeous mushroom painting... didn't realize they were hallucenoginic (what a word-lol) - I really like the results you get when you are pouring paint - gives a wonderful background. Thanks for sharing friend - hugs Debbie
