Pantone 476: Mushroom Fairy Houses Painting

£68.00

The Mushroom Fairy Houses came about after I watched the documentary Fantastic Fungi.   All mushrooms fascinate me and when I first moved to Scotland, I loved discovering the many species that grew around the woods that surrounded our home.   I was never brave enough to pick and eat any as my foraging skills are sadly limited.

With the Mushroom Fairy Houses painting I wanted to pay particular attention to certain parts of the mushroom’s structure.   It’s spongey cap that seem to weather the elements to protect the delicate gills beneath.   The multitude of gills that have the important job of producing spores.

Then you have the many fairytales told over the years to children all around the world of fairies and elves that live in mushroom houses.  Delicate fairy dust dances around the mushroom as its little tenants fly home to return to the comfort of their mushroom dwellings at the end of the day.  You could imagine the soft glow of candles from each little window as the fairies and elves get dinner ready and turn in for the evening.
