LYNNE PRILLERMAN The Beauty of Fungi | Photography | 2020

“I shot this piece of work while walking in Franklin Park. I am always looking for unique creativity in my natural
surroundings. I happened to look down and discovered a cluster of mushrooms; all different shapes, sizes and textures
surrounded by blades of grass. The composition of the mushrooms was so creative it spoke to me. I saw unity, family,
and growth which showed resilience in the difficult time we are living in today. As I was editing the work I changed the
color of mushrooms to purple to represent royalty. I was so blessed to capture the natural beauty of the fungi through
the lens of my camera.

‘Knowing that every good and perfect gift comes from above’. It is my desire to create images in various mediums that
will allow you to explore your spirituality through the arts. I am also a portrait artist that uses our human experience to
create an avenue that allows us to embrace one another. Hopefully through viewing my art, you can relate to the pains
and joys of life. Believing all things are possible and that hope is available to you.”
