"When one speaks of the beauty of Mother Nature, lush leaves and bright blooms in the sun often come to mind. However, there is so much charm to be found in her lesser-noticed side, sprouting silently in the places people rarely look at. The fungi family, for example, is full of intriguing species in a variety of shapes, patterns, and sizes that brim with character in the eyes of the observant. FUNGAL INSPIRATION is a visual collection of often-hidden gems that highlight the wilder side of nature from around the world. From the intricately detailed to the delightfully quirky, the projects demonstrate a wide range of creativity and a keen appreciation for the unique by the artists and designers who add their own personalities to the curiosities they bring to life on canvas"--Publisher's description.
