Photographer Captures Colorful Mushrooms In Vibrant Arrangements

It takes an extra-ordinary eye to see the beauty in the ordinary. And it takes even more exceptional talent to make this beauty shine for others to see. Jill Bliss, a gifted artist who describes herself as a modern nomad of the Salish Sea, happens to have both.

In an interview with King5 News, Bliss shared how she started turning these fungi into the work of a fairy. "I'm a painter, and in my studio when I'm waiting for paint to dry, I would go for hikes and collect things I found in the forest and I started making just color studies of the things I was finding, and it ended up being mostly mushrooms." The talented artist said. Bliss has a keen eye for art, and she wouldn't hesitate to pause for a while in order to give mushrooms a touch of her fairy dust. Apparently, this character of her makes her a terrible hiking partner for those who are in a hurry. But if you do not mind taking your time, you may find yourself basking in the glory of nature when you are with her.
