Turkey Tail Mushroom Fairy - Limited Edition Art Print
from €22.00
Deep in the quiet understory of the forest, where fallen branches soften into soil and the world smells of humus and rain, lives a shy and ancient spirit born from the heart of the forest itself. She is not a fairy in the winged, glittering sense, she is something older, steadier, sympathetic in the ways of moss and mycelium. She is the personification of the turkey tail mushroom, a fae embodiment of resilience, healing and the quiet work of renewal.
She moves softly among fallen wood, her layered skirts rippling like the concentric rings of the fungi that formed her. Each fold of her gown echoes the curved, feathered edges of turkey tails: russet, ochre, ash, bark-brown. When she steps, the patterns seem to shift like spores catching the light.
She is a communal being not solitary, despite her shyness, for the mushroom spirits do nothing alone. Their magic is networked, shared, humming beneath the soil in unseen threads. She carries this essence within her: connection, communication and quiet strength.
Her magic is a heightened form of what turkey tail mushrooms are known for, restoration, deep immunity, spiritual cleansing and transforming what has fallen into new life.
When she touches a decaying log, softness spreads; what was breaking down begins to glow faintly with potential. When she breathes, the air feels a little clearer, as if old heaviness is lifting. She does not cast showy spells, she works slowly, steadily, like the forest itself.
She hides when footsteps approach not out of fear, but because her presence is meant to be felt rather than seen. A shift of leaves, a brief warmth in the air, a pattern on bark that you swear wasn’t there before. Those who do see her describe her eyes as autumn-coloured and ancient and her voice as the hush of a thousand tiny spores drifting on a breeze.
She is the spirit of resilience, of recovery, of the secret work happening out of sight. The quiet guardian of the forest’s second life.

✦ About the Print
Digitally reproduced from a high resolution scan of MyfanwyNia’s original watercolour, this fine-art print captures every delicate brushstroke and hue of the hand-painted piece.
Each print is created using a xerographic process - an image-forming technique that uses a light-sensitive photoconductive surface whose electrical resistance changes when exposed to light. This precision laser method fuses dry pigment to the paper’s surface rather than allowing it to soak in, giving the artwork a distinctive richness and depth. The tones appear slightly raised, with a natural sheen that shifts beautifully in the light once the heat has set the pigment.
Because this process uses dry pigment, it allows for printing on luxurious coated pearlescent paper - a softly shimmering surface that enhances the dreamlike quality of the artwork.
Each print is carefully produced in the artist’s studio by MyfanwyNia herself, ensuring the highest attention to detail and finish.

✦ Artist’s Note
“Something about the harlequin pattern has always fascinated me. It conjures up bohemian caravans and travelling carnivals - the call of the unknown, the wonder and whisper of lights in the distance, the romance and risk of running away with the circus.
I later learned that those diamond shapes trace their origins to the commedia dell’arte of 16th-century Italy, where the Harlequin became a symbol of transformation - the fool, the trickster, the dreamer, embodying both humour and melancholy. In the 19th century, the motif found new life in pantomime and circus costume, often adorned with celestial imagery - stars, moons and night skies, as symbols of theatre’s connection to dreams and imagination.
In many ways, she carries the same spirit as the Fool, that first bright step into the unknown, where courage is born from curiosity. Like the old Harlequin, she moves between laughter and longing, learning as she goes. The tiny stars and crescent moon on her costume soften those Victorian theatrical symbols into something more intimate and bohemian, while her starfish companions continue the theme - a living constellation, awkward and endearing, sharing in her courage to begin and to keep trying.”
