Description
My rendition of the Oregon Grape, Oregon's State Flower was commissioned to promote the 2009 Glide Wildflower Show, the premiere Wildflower Show held annually since 1965.
As in all my art, I was not content to merely reproduce an image of the plant. I wanted to give this flower the attention it deserves. After becoming familiar with the anatomy of the plant, I designed the holly shaped leaves as a backdrop for the cluster of buds beginning to open. I pushed the colors in the leaves. Rarely do we take the time to really notice all the intricate details of smaller flowers; especially when they are tiny buds in masses of color that are usually viewed merely as patches of color.
