A plant that dreamt of being human. This piece was inspired by one of my favorite movies of all times, Pan's Labyrinth. In the film, the faun tells Ofelia (the main character) to place a mandrake root in a bowl of fresh milk underneath her mother's bed. She must also feed the mandrake 2 droops of blood a day in order to restore her mother's health.
This piece was made for the Indie Free Spirits Team Challenge:

The brooch was embroidered by me with cotton thread on wool felt fabric. It measures approximately 2in x 1.5in. It comes packed in a unique hand painted watercolor envelope.
