Still Life Night - Mushrooms

We had a delightful evening themed around ‘Still Life’. Instead of our usual setup, we gathered around a single group of tables to create art together. Mushrooms were our subject, and everyone chose their preferred medium.

The atmosphere was wonderfully sociable, filled with chatter and the occasional peek at our neighbors’ progress. The consensus was that this format was a hit and worth repeating.

After enjoying a cup of tea and some delicious homemade cake (thanks to Margaret), we shared and reviewed our work. The variety was impressive, with watercolors, pastels, pencils, and acrylics, each showcasing different styles and techniques.

Of course, there were a few playful excuses for unfinished pieces, notably: “the tea and cake were ready.”

Here are some of the images:

No mushrooms were harded during the production of these artworks.
However, I suspect a few might have ended up in the frying pan for breakfast the next morning!
