Shelf Mushroom: Squirrel III
Original Artwork hand burned on a dried 'polypore mushroom'
These are incredibly unique pieces that are truly one-of-a-kind; as the mushrooms themselves are incredibly unique in nature, and this is not a common art practise.

The Deets:
This piece features a squirrel peering over a log sprouted with mushrooms, with a leafy border. Squirrels are a constant companion while I'm out there in the woods- always chattering away as I stumble onto their stashes. They often leave mushrooms hanging in the trees to dry, and I'll see them nearby shoving them into the cracks of stumps and trees to store over winter.
This piece is detailed with realistic hair textures, giving it a lifelike appearance. The squirrel subject contrasts nicely from the dark background creating a bright focal point.
A unique piece of art that pays homage to the relationship between squirrels and mushrooms.
