    Thanks for watching! Fly Agaric, so named for its use in detering flies, is probably one of human being's oldest hallucinogenics. Some believe it is the plant of the ancient Vedic ritual drink, Soma. It was apparently treated with so much secrecy by ancient Egyptians that they didn't actually have a common name in use for it. This beautiful fungus even has links to the Viking beserkers, and origin theories of Christianity. 

This toadstool has been used to  communicate with the dead, to ease hard labour, to divine, and promote dreaming and euphoria for healing. It also has side effects of nausea, extended vomiting, dreamy deep sleep and, of course, hallucinations. Treat it with caution and respect, and always, always, always ask a professional. It is poisonous, after all.

I've never seen real Fly Agaric before. I am so grateful to Mother Earth for giving me the opportunity to observe this little psychotropic fungus in person! And for making my garden a little more witchy πŸ„βœ¨

    Sometimes you just have to draw something because you LOVE it, and who doesn't love dinosaurs?

I couldn't find a still reference I was happy with, but then I found this amazing tutorial by Negs Muffin and decided to follow along and apply my own techniques to it. If you want to give it a go you can find the video here:

    Art is a transference of energies, and it flows freely through the inspiration, the creator, and the audience. I'm an artist and illustrator from South Africa, and I'm constantly in awe of the natural world.
