....school project....

...today i found some funghi...
...not in the usual places...
(i.e all over the house)...
...wooden, felty, 
crochet(thank you miss daisy)....
....or just hangin' around...
...i love 'em all...
...no these ones were outside...
....and spotted whilst walking the dog...
...i thought they looked so amazing
i'd take pictures....
.....and as i was snapping...
...and admiring them...
i thought it would be the sort of thing
you would do a school project about...
...research them...
...sketch them...
...design a fabric...
...write a little poem about them...
...i got quite carried away in my imagination...
...oh the mushroomy possibilities!!!
...i was far too young to go to school
 when i did....
...i'd be SO much more interested and
enthused now....
....what homework would you choose tonight?

  7. Ah, 'Youth is wasted on the young' - I would study art history. I started taking adult classes in art history, then I went and had a baby...then another...but someday I'll return to it. I love your shrooms! Chrissie x

Toad stools and mushrooms and fungi indeed...Are
    so very magical! Why oh why did we have to learn MATHS though...~ Happy new magical season and month to you! hugs Maria x

  19. If I could I would do school all over again as long as I know what I know now... Last year I studied wild flowers and had so much fun learning about them, photographing and finding them. So with birds and wild flowers under my belt I need a new subject for next year and it is going to be learning about clouds and stones.....

  21. I think I would like to learn how to watercolour. I am not very artistic but I have read that you can be taught how to paint and draw so that would be my homework!
