Illustration Friday - Welcome (color version)

{Watercolor, 2009}
I finished painting this today, and it is the colored version of THIS. It is a welcoming autumn forest scene depicting the American toad and an Isabella Tiger moth... as well as some early autumn mushrooms that I found growing in the woods behind my home.
