Oregon Grape Hats
Main Tag:
Description: This is my acrylic painting of the Oregon state bird and flower, the Western meadowlark and Oregon grape. Native to the North American west coast, the Oregon-grape is an evergreen shrub with fruits that were a traditional diet of the Pacific Northwest aboriginal peoples. Today these bitter berries are used in jellies & jams. Oregon was admitted to the union on February 14, 1859 as the 33rd state. This painting is part of my state bird and flower collection.
