Yes — belladonna, also called deadly nightshade, is highly dangerous to humans. She sounds pretty, but she contains toxic alkaloids like atropine and scopolamine (I have never heard of them either.) These can cause hallucinations, rapid heartbeat, paralysis, respiratory failure, and death, even in small doses. So stay clear.
This belladonna is illustrated with markers on top of acrylic paint, then embellished with embroidery.
