Fungus Among Us by Daily Painter of Pennsylvania Mary Beth Brath

Fungus Among Us
6x12" Acrylic Alla Prima

Well...Claire put out a reminder about this month's challenge and I took the bait. I may decide to touch this up...or leave it alone...not sure yet.

I searched around my yard to paint the mushrooms plein air but could not find any today. So I went way back to photos I took in 2008 while at our family cabin in Northwestern PA.  Thank you Pat for hosting the challenge.  I have always wanted to paint mushrooms and this made me focus on the subject.

Mary Beth, they look like little fan dancers. And, the colors in the fungi sing. What a performance!
