Russula aeruginea - mixed media
Russula aeruginea is a 3x3” piece created in watercolor, graphite, and charcoal on watercolor board. This work emerges from the “Mycorrhizal” section of the Collective Humanity series as a symbol of quiet contribution and interdependence. The mushroom, often hiding in plain sight in birch-dominated forests, is rendered here in soft, tonal graphite—its curves and gills delicate yet grounded against a wash of cool, translucent watercolor.
A mycorrhizal partner, Russula aeruginea thrives not alone, but in collaboration—exchanging nutrients and creating balance below the forest floor. This piece reminds us of the invisible systems that sustain life, and the importance of nurturing the relationships that feed us all.
Ships flat. Framing add-on available for mounted display.
