Morel Discovery

"Morel Discovery"
As we are approaching the morel season in northwest Ohio I thought that I would post a painting of 2 young persons discovering these woodland delights. The original measures 20" x 30" and I painted this in the 1980's. On a side note, the reference is of my two children.

The copyright of they image belongs to Don Huber and cannot be reproduced in any way without the written permission of the artist.

MOREL BURGER

This was a great meal and that is all that needs to be said about that!

MOREL JAMBOREE MORELSCAPE STORE

I WILL BE EXHIBITING MY MOREL ARTWORK IN NASHVILLE INDIANA ON MAY 4 - MAY 6 FOR THE MOREL JUBILEE.

This is the finished art of the my fictitious magazine "Morel Monthly". 

The original is an 18" x 24" acrylic painting on stretched canvas

Morel Monthly Progress

 

This is the latest morel painting that I completed this week. I still have to add the graphics to make it look like a magazine cover called the "Morel Monthly"

The Best View

The best site in the kitchen in spring is a pan full of morels. 

Simply sautéed in butter with a little flour.

Wet Times On Stoney Ground

  Didn't have the best location this spring for camping but had to make it work. This photo was taken after a very heavy rain and we got caught in the woods over an hour from camp so we just kept hunting and had to hang out our clothes to dry when we got back to camp a few hours later.

Traveling the Elk highway

While morel hunting this past spring I ran across these beautiful animals on several occasions. I wish that I had a better camera, but I had to just use my iPhone.

 

"Fun Hatter Guy"

While wandering in the woods a few years ago I seen an older gentleman wearing a hat with oyster, bolete, pheasant back, sulphur shelf, shaggy mane, honey and hen of the woods mushrooms.There was a chipmunk on his shoulder, a ruffed grouse on the top of his hat and a small owl peeking from inside the tree stump hat. He came running up to me and held in his hands a beautiful group of morel mushrooms. He said that I could have the morels if I respected the forested land and treated it with kindness. As soon as I said yes, he smiled, told me to have fun and quickly disappeared leaving me holding the handful of morels.

To this day I love telling my grandchildren the story of the day I met the "Fun Hatter Guy", as in fungi.

Morelville PAINTING progress
