Moss on the backyard tree - Colored Pencil

It's been a wet summer here in Minnesota and that means moss on the trees. Hard to get it just right, but this was my effort for what it's worth. And it's my sister Mandy's birthday, not just another birthday but a milestone birthday. It reminded me as we get older, we gain character. Like the moss on the tree, sometimes cloudy and rainy patches in our lives bring some unexpected wonders.

Happy Birthday MJ.
