Amethyst Deceiver by Sold Kingdom
"Laccaria amethystina, commonly known as the 'amethyst deceiver', is a small brightly colored mushroom, that grows in deciduous and coniferous forests...
Because its bright amethyst coloration fades with age and weathering, it becomes difficult to identify, hence the common name 'deceiver'...
While not inherently toxic, in soils that are polluted with arsenic, it can bioaccumulate a high concentration of that element."

“Family likeness has often a deep sadness in it. Nature, that great tragic dramatist, knits us together by bone and muscle, and divides us by the subtler web of our brains; blends yearning and repulsion; and ties us by our heart-strings to the beings that jar us at every movement.” - George Eliot

"Art is the most beautiful deception of all. And although people try to incorporate the everyday events of life in it, we must hope that it will remain a deception lest it become a utilitarian thing, sad as a factory." - Claude Debussy
