Very nice! Great progress using this medium! It’s a wonderful representation. I love your attention to detail in the cap and in the stem.

If you are just getting the hang of pen and ink then you are well on the way. The mushroom really pops due to your use of values and the textures you created.

I look forward to seeing future pen and ink artwork you do.
