This morning, as Bill was doing some house repair work for our friend Kim, he found this odd looking mushroom growing flat on the grass. So of course he brought it home for me to sketch. At first it didn’t seem to have a stem but after he picked it he found that the underside gills and short, stubby stem were a soft earthy yellow.
I should have used more raw umber watercolor on the upper part . . .
(
When he first walked in with it cradled in his hand, I thought he was bringing me a field mouse!)
