#Funguary is wrapping up in a few days - but for today, we have the Lion’s Mane fungus!

I’ve never seen another fungus quite like these. Aside from looking really cool, they’re also edible AND medicinal; they can be used to treat the heart, the immune system, the nervous system, anxiety and depression, cognitive and digestive health - even diabetes and cancer! For a time, it was even thought that Lion’s Mane could help cure dementia, but sadly, this isn’t the case…

What’s funny is that for pretty much all of my fungus girlies this month, I’ve had the mushroom caps (or the fungi themselves) growing out of their hair - but here, this fungus IS her hair! (It was too good an opportunity to pass up…) And of course, I had to give her a fringed skirt and furry leg-warmers to keep up the same vibe.

Made with Ohuhu markers and Shuttle Art pencil crayons
