Hello hello! Yesterday I finished my last Mushroom for may 🍄✨ (I know there are 31 days but you'll see in a bit why I went with 30)
🍄 cremini mushrooms are probably the thing I eat most. Actually I think I eat them every day with dinner and they're soo versatile. I watched a YouTube video last night about a guy who photographs fungi and apparently in other parts of the world there's HUNDREDS of different mushrooms that people can just buy and eat??? Idk man I have like... 5 options depending on the store I go to. We need more mushrooms here 😅
Day 29! Column stinkhorn 😮🍄 heck these things get crazy. Have you seen a timelapse of them grow? Beautiful yet terrifying
Howdy goblin and fairy friends 🍄✨ it's mayshroom #28: common puffball!
ALSO since we are coming near the end of the month, I am in the process of selecting which Mayshrooms will be made into prints!
🍄 I'm going to rework the boarder + remove the month and date but I will sign and number the print on the back (for example if you wanted todays mayshroom I'd sign the back and write "05/28")
🍄 I will be keeping the names of the Mayshrooms under the painting :)
🍄 The size will be 5"x7"
I will post an example tomorrow and id love to hear from you about what Mayshrooms you'd like to see as prints ❤️🍄✨
I'm so happy you are enjoying the Mayshrooms and I hope you enjoy the art to come ❤️😊
Mayshroom day 27 baybeeeeeee
Birds nest mushroom looks a lot like a bucket of beans...Or goblin stew. A very neat fungus indeed!
Mayshroom day 26! We are getting so close to the end of the month and the end of the Mayshrooms, but in the days to come there will be some exciting developments 👀 what are they planning...
Until then, enjoy today's friend! Sticking with the witchy theme from yesterday we have a witches cauldron! Very rare indeed 👀
Yesterday's lovely fungus ✨ witches butter / Golden jelly! How would like like to spread this on your morning toast?
Mayshroom day 20!! I've seen some varieties of this where the inside and outside is all white or the outside is brown, but I only saw one where the inside was a dark greyish colour so I decided on that one :) say hello to the earth star fungus!
AAA I keep forgetting to update tumblr with my mushrooms I'm so sorry to all my goblin friends ,l💀
Day 2 of Mayshrooms ✨🍄✨ (technically it's tomorrow now but shhh) introducing oyster mushrooms! Very tasty but be careful because i found out that there's some tricky look-a-likes out there that are NOT edible 👀
.
Hello there, little Bumble buddy!
A painting for my grandmother 😊 she has a beautiful garden and I want to give her a little corner of garden to put indoors✨ plus a bumblebee to keep the flowers company🥰
I bought the greenhouse haven kit on TS4 and made a little plant nursery! 💚 I shared it to the gallery if anyone wants to play with it. Be sure to use bb.moveobjects when placing it.
It's called Dusty Greenhouse and my un is nopethanq

ES|| Felices fiestas a todos!! Espero que paséis unos días geniales, libres de ansiedad y llenos de alegría, amor y empatía, con vosotros mismos y con vuestros seres más queridos, ya sean vuestra familia (escogida o no), hagan la fotosíntesis o sean peludos!🎄✨
Este año he reinterpretado el árbol de navidad del año pasado! Creo que el árbol ha quedado un poco más dinámico con sus ramas-brazo. Además, esta vez he diseñado dos versiones porque cuando ya tenía acabada la versión de las letras pensé que sería divertida una versión con más animalitos.🐰❄️
EN|| Happy Holidays to everyone!! I hope you have a great time, anxiety free and full of joy, love and empathy, with yourselves and with your loved ones, whether they are your family (chosen or not), do photosynthesis or they’re furry!🎄✨
This year I have reinterpreted last year's Christmas tree! I think the tree has become a bit more dynamic with its arm-branches. Also, this time I have designed two versions because when I had already finished the version with the letters, I thought it would be so much fun to have a version with more animals.🐰❄️
ES| Aunque podemos encontrar limones todo el año, una de las épocas de recolección de la fruta es el invierno. El limón aparte de estar buenísimo, combinar genial en las infusiones y contener vitamina C y otros minerales, es un fruto con muchísimas propiedades beneficiosas no solamente consumiéndolo fresco, sino que también es muy apreciado por el aceite esencial que se extrae de su piel.
Exprimido se usa contra la artritis, es depurativo, diurético, antirreumático, antivírico, antibiótico, anticatarral, antigripal y antidiarreico, ya que es astringente y remineralizarne. Además, es antiséptico bucofaríngeo y ayuda a combatir la amigdalitis y la faringitis. El limón también contiene terpenos, que tienen propiedades antitumorales, ayuda con los mareos, las taquicardias y las enfermedades cardiovasculares.
A nivel cutáneo es un gran tónico y también se utiliza contra la celulitis. Funciona de maravilla como limpiador, por lo que es de gran ayuda contra la grasa facial y el acné. Es antiséptico, cicatrizante y coagulante, a parte de un fortalecedor capilar natural.
Su aceite esencial vaporizado tiene propiedades contra la fatiga, la tensión nerviosa, la depresión y la falta de concentración por lo que es un gran aliado en momentos de estudio o trabajo.
Aunque ya sabéis que siempre se tiene que ir con cuidado, ya que no a todo el mundo le van bien los mismos remedios ya que a veces suelen tener contraindicaciones, como por ejemplo la acidez del zumo de limón puede estropear el esmalte de los dientes, o el aceite esencial si se expone al sol puede dejar manchas! 🍋🌱
EN| Although we can find lemons all year round, one of the fruit’s harvesting seasons is winter. Lemons, besides from being delicious, being great to combine to make delicious infusions and being a great source of vitamin C and other minerals, is a fruit with many beneficial properties not only consuming it fresh, but it’s also highly appreciated for the essential oil extracted from its skin. Its juice is used against arthritis, it is a diuretic, detox, antirheumatic, antiviral, antibiotic, anti-cold, anti-flu and anti-diarrheal (since it’s astringent and remineralizing). In addition, it’s an oropharyngeal antiseptic and helps combat tonsillitis and pharyngitis. Lemons also contains terpenes, which have anti-tumoral properties, helps with dizziness, tachycardia and cardiovascular diseases. It’s a great cutaneous tonic and is also used against cellulite. It works wonderfully as a cleanser, making it a great help against facial grease and acne. It’s antiseptic, healing and coagulant, as well as a natural hair strengthener. Its vaporized essential oil has properties against fatigue, nervous tension, depression and lack of concentration, making it a great ally during study or work sessions. Although you already know you always have to be careful, since not everyone is good with the same remedies and sometimes, they have contraindications, such as how the acidity of the lemon juice can damage the enamel of your teeth, or the essential oil if exposed to the sun can leave skin stains! 🍋🌱

ES|| He hecho una nueva versión del caracolito enamorado. Hace muchísimo tiempo que tenia el esbozo y el apunte de color hecho en procreate y también realice una versión de la misma ilustración en formato vertical para la exposición de postales de @gallerynucleus . Además tengo pendiente una nueva versión donde quiero experimentar con mucho más gouache y menos acuarela! 🐌 En las imágenes podéis ver el resultado final, el primer paso con solo una capa de acuarela y gouache para el azul del fondo, y el esbozo. Por cierto recordad que si queréis tener o regalar una de las postales de la exposición aun las tenéis disponibles en la tienda online de la galería! EN|| I’ve made a new version of the little snail in love. It's been a long time since I had the sketch and the color tests made in procreate and I also made a version of the same illustration in a vertical format for the power in numbers exhibition at @gallerynucleus . I also have a new version pending where I want to experiment more with gouache and use less watercolor!🐌 In the images you can see the final result, the first step with just a layer of watercolor and gouache for the blue in the background, and the sketch. By the way, remember that if you want to have or gift one of the postcards from the exhibition, you still have them available in the gallery's online store!
