About the Mushrooms

I've talked about the beacons, but you might have noticed they're not the only constant in my images. The mushrooms are usually present as well. 

They are used frequently in many things, by many people. An easy choice to represent nature with a side of magic and whimsy. I use them with the same purpose, yes.

But, for me, they also represent perseverance. They keep popping up! 
You know that tumblr meme? You cannot kill me in a way that matters. Yeah, that's where I got the notion of mushrooms = perseverance. 

So they're about keeping it whimsical, magical, playful - keeping the inner child present and allowing it to dream.

They're about resisting, persisting, persevering against the heavy and dark aspects of life. 
And they go hand in hand with the beacons.
