'Milk Cap' - genus (lactarius luminous)
This is my new painting for The Volution Group Exhibition on this Thursday.
I knew I wanted to paint a mushroom girl breast feeding a glow bug, but it wasn't until I looked through my encylopedia of Mushrooms that I discovered the lactarius genus- 'Milk Caps' which was very fitting.
There are all sorts of milk caps, my favourite is the Lactarius deliciosus
I invented my own specie 'lactarius luminous'
'Her mothers Milk is used as fuel for bugs that glow like star-lit jewels'
