It will be a little while before my Pixelfed arrives at the moss art, so I thought I'd share another one here for now. There are more of these in the makings, but for #ThrowbackThursday this one is nice too!

This is my Amanita muscaria light - a silicone mushroom in a round glass dome. I have made it again later, but with a different glass dome and on a simple wooden base.

Might have to make it like this again, I like the round glass. But those are hard to find! This one was a vintage thriftstore find.

What do I do with my old Instagram stories? Some are nice, most are not very interesting anymore. Should I make some sort of collection to show the development of some of my artworks? Other ideas? This one, for example, had quite a few failed predecessors.

I'm really missing the warmer months in my garden. (See picture) It's very sad and in need of a lot of work now, of which I will share no pictures as it is only depressing.

Currently working on six of these—four for a custom order and two for the shop—but there’s also this one that’s still unfinished. What do you think: better with or without the lights? It feels nice as it is...

I will be reuploading and commenting on my whole Instagram feed on Pixelfed. This way I will still have an archive which shows the way my work developed. My Pixelfed account is here: @LevendLichtje@pixelfed.social

As an illustration of things to come: This is my Monotropa uniflora (Indian Ghost Pipe) light. It contains 5 lights in the shape of the fascinating Ghost Pipe flowers. Did you know they are parasitic? They get their food from mushrooms instead of the sun.

Wow, I have never felt so welcomed on any social network before! Thank you all :) I thought my first post would be seen by just about nobody. But no, nearly 600 favorites! I'm amazed!

Another one of my moss artworks: a small lighted sporophyte embroidery again. More (and other types of artworks) to follow!
