It truly has my creative mind spinning and a new perspective on what mushrooms I'll be collecting this season." -- Jess Starwood, author of Mushroom Wanderland, "Organized by color with beautiful illustrations and hundreds of sample swatches, Beeler's new book offers a master class in mushrooms and the surprising rainbow they hold, as well as easy-to-follow instructions for readers looking to explore natural dyeing." -- The Seattle Times, "The Mushroom Color Atlas is a phenomenally beautiful, technically detailed, and comprehensive exploration of using mushrooms as natural dyes. Julie's book is incredibly well organized both by mushroom species and color aesthetics. The overviews, illustrations, and accurate information make this a must-have resource for anyone interested in dyeing with mushrooms." --Dr. Gordon Walker, author of Dr. Fun Guy's Passport to Kingdom Fungi, Richly illustrated, clearly written, and comprehensive, The Mushroom Color Atlas is a must-have for any dye library. It's more than that, too, and will be of interest to anyone who is curious about the world around them. Beeler has produced a beautiful and engaging resource that's easily devourable cover to cover or that readers can dip in and out of, exploring the world of fungi at their own pace and returning to as they need. It's an exciting addition to the genre, and I look forward to taking it out on a forage this autumn. -- Lauren MacDonald, author of In Pursuit of Color|9781797228457|, "The saying, 'nature has the answers,' is reflected in Julie Beeler's The Mushroom Color Atlas, a book that unlocks a magical and mystical mushroom palette that has always been here, if only we know where to look. This essential guide for artists and makers in search of natural pigments and dyes has changed my own understanding of color--and inspires me to explore Julie's simple methods for transforming mushrooms into hues both earthy and vibrant. What a tribute to a more sustainable expression of color, design, and craft!" -- Debra Prinzing, author of Slow Flowers and The 50 Mile Bouquet, "A lavish but very practical guide for the fungus-foraging artist, with biological info and beautiful color portraits of each of the shrooms, plus a comprehensive set of color swatches that indicate the colors you can obtain from them." -- American Craft Magazine, "This stunning book is the result of years of creative experimentation. Mushrooms are chemical wizards, and Julie Beeler is a masterful guide to the spectrum of pigments they can make. I have spent many happy moments lost in the fungal colorscapes contained in this exquisitely produced volume." -- Merlin Sheldrake, author of Entangled Life
