My second illustration for the #MysticFloraChallenge. Wormwood is a herb that has all kinds of potential uses but the one that jumped out to me was that it is used absinthe! The scientific name is actually Artemisia Absinthium. Who knew?! Wormwood also contains a a toxic oil which can cause all kinds of nasty side effects. So the prompt “potions” seemed like a good choice to pair with it.
