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 ""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 ""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 ""This book is as exquisite as it is comprehensive.
