Jew's ear Auricularia
This watercolor captures the delicate yet resilient nature of the bean ear mushroom (Auricularia), known for its distinctive ear-shaped growths and ability to thrive in moist, shady environments.
A soft, earthy palette was chosen to reflect the organic harmony of this plant with its surroundings. The leaves vary in shades from deep green to ochre, indicating the plant's natural life cycle as it progresses through different stages of growth.
The stems are rendered with fine, hair-like details that hint at the plant's fibrous structure. Their reddish-brown tones gently contrast with the cooler tones of the leaves, lending a sense of depth and movement.
The ground beneath the plant is painted with muted browns and soft grays, using loose washes and subtle splashes to evoke the moist, nutrient-rich soil where it thrives.
This piece portrays not only the physical beauty of the Auricularia but also its serene resilience and symbiotic relationship with its environment.
I wish you a very nice day!
