The Slender Parasol
€149.00
I used a Slender
Parasol mushroom (Macrolepiota mastoidea) for this piece. I found a group of
these elegant mushrooms in the woods behind the house. They are quite common in
woodlands and is a good edible species provided you are confident it is not the
Shaggy Parasol (Chlorophyllum rhacodes) which can cause stomach pain and
vomiting in some people.
The description ‘mastoidea’ probably comes from the Greek ‘mastos’ meaning breast.
This print is made using wild mushrooms picked sustainably from nearby woods.
I used grey card and a white frame with glass.
The square, wooden frame (purchased) is 40cm high x 40cm length (16”x16”) which can be hung.
All my work is mounted, framed, sealed and ready to hang.
