Herbologist Zine Vol. 5
The fifth edition of the Herbologist zine collects together a year of my patreon rewards from November 2023 to October 2024. It features a collection of plant and fungi illustrations and their associated folklore, facts and mythology. This zine is A5 in size (14.8 x 21 cm) with saddle stitch binding. It contains 56 full colour pages inside.
As a continuation of the series this year’s volume delves into fungi much more than past editions, as well as a deep dive into folklore and scientific themes like fairy rings and the fungi that form them. It explores flowers associated with fairies in myth and weeds used by witches in superstitious folklore. This edition showcases a year's worth of my plant illustrations and research. It is an exploration of plants, fungi and folklore, their curiosities and oddities and the intriguing scientific facts of the natural world around us.
