I'm reposting everything from my old Instagram, to keep my archive and have a record of my work's development. I'm adding commentary below the original text.

"Mycena albatus", white silicon mushroom on dried mosses and soil. One more to show of these, plus the dandelion.
I am better at creating these now, they take up less time. Before, they took at least a whole day to make, now I can create three of them in the same amount of time. And the result is better too.
With this series I have created new techniques and put them to good use. Silicon 'clay' is one of them, a quick drying mixture that I use to fix the mushrooms to the base. I have to work fairly quick to get it right (2 minutes max) but the effect is both strong and easy on the eye. As a bonus, it lowers my working time, since I don't have to wait before I can proceed.

I still love the contrast of very white mushrooms against real dried moss, but I would construct the stems and caps differently now. The wrinkles in this piece make them look organic, but I wouldn’t want to repeat that in new lights. I think smoother surfaces feel more true to life for mushrooms.
I also stopped using dried moss in my art because shipping pieces with natural materials internationally was difficult, if not impossible. That challenge ultimately led me to embroidery instead!

"Cuphophyllus albatus", first of its kind. Silicon mushrooms with defined gills on dried moss and soil.
I am very happy about the way this one turned out. It's the first time I have made gills like this and the effect is better then I thought it would be. So even though it's currently the only one, there will be more like it.
Available for sale!

This piece has long been sold, but I might make similar mushrooms again sometime. I love how the gills take center stage in this design. If I remake it, the construction would be different—perhaps using a very thin paper instead of silicone for the gills. That would make it even more fragile than this piece was.

Coucou,
Hop, voilà la dernière partie des illustrations de "Charlie et le champignon", est écrit par Julieta Cánepa et Pierre Ducrozet, et édité par les éditions du Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle. 😊

On y voit Charlie quitter le Jardin après son aventure, qui lui a beaucoup appris sur le cycle de la vie souterraine. 🌱🐛🍄🍃

Bonsoir tout le monde,
Aller, troisième partie des illustrations que j'ai faites pour le livre jeunesse "Charlie et le champignon", est écrit par Julieta Cánepa et Pierre Ducrozet, et édité par les éditions du Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle.

Charlie y continue son périple sous terre 😊 🍄🐟🐜

Demain la fin ! 📙

For #FungiFriday I wanted to present this amazing #mushroom I encountered in a #rewilded patch of woods near #Eunice #Louisiana. This colorful #fungus is a Column Stinkhorn! It has a brown viscous fluid under its hollow crown that attracts flies due to its smell of decay. These flies subsequently distribute its spores. I have never actually seen one of these before. The photos were taken last week.
