Did you know...Beatrix Potter's birthday is today and she began her career as illustrator and scholar of fungi!
"Botanist, Artist, and Storyteller, Beatrix was invited to study fungi at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Kew, and she produced hundreds of detailed botanical drawings and investigated their cultivation and growth.
Encouraged by Charles McIntosh, a revered Scottish naturalist, to make her fungi drawings more technically accurate, Beatrix not..." only produced beautiful watercolours but also became an adept scientific illustrator.
