No more eggs.
I am tired of drawing eggs.
No more mushrooms either.
Oh wait, I still like mushrooms.

Amanita virosa
Destroying Angel is a name given to three species of mushrooms of the genus Amanita, namely Amanita bisporigera, Amanita virosa and Amanaita verna. These mushrooms are white and I find them beautiful. However, it is a challenge to draw white mushroom on white Bristol Board. I tried. This is Amanita virosa, otherwise known as the European Destroying Angel. It is a deadly poisonous basidiomycete fungus and is associated with many coniferous (pine) and deciduous trees such as oak. The immature specimen resemble many edible varieties increasing the risk of accidental poisoning. Amanita virosa is one of the most poisonous of all known poisonous mushrooms; its principal toxin α-amanitin damages the liver and kidneys, often fatally. There are only a few known antidotes, one of which is a compound derived from milk thistle.
