Birds are such interesting animals. I read that dinosaurs are on the evolutionary tree of birds. I look at the little birds around my house and wonder what kind of mighty creature lives on in their DNA. The paintings are of birds whose range is, at least in part, within the State of Oregon.
These intimate little 4 by 6 inch paintings are in oil on Rives BFK sized printmaking paper. I gesso the paper to give it added protection from the oil paint.
The birds are in alphabetical order.
