“A range of fungal forms” illustrations for Mi

“A range of fungal forms” illustrations for Michael Hathaway’s book “What a mushroom lives for”

In January 2021 I had an opportunity to work on some illustrations for Dr. Michael Hathaway’s amazing book about fungi - one of the most fascinating organisms on earth🍄 Here is a quote from the book:

“The microscopic fungi are all around us, … yeast that transforms wheat into bread, barley into beer, and grapes into wine. Fungi, thus, bring bread into being, but they can also take it away from us, as many people keep bread until blue mold appears in ever expanding circles.”
- Michael Hathaway

I highly recommend this book to anyone!

“What a mushroom lives for” A book by Michael

“What a mushroom lives for”
A book by Michael Hathaway in my hands!!

In January 2021 I had an opportunity to work on some illustrations for Dr. Michael Hathaway’s amazing book about fungi - one of the most fascinating organisms on earth🍄 I am so excited for Dr. Hathaway publishing this book after years and years of research and hard work. I have been reading this book and it has already made me start viewing the world differently by seeing how fungi are interacting with every living being on earth. I highly recommend this book to anyone!
