This ceramic tile mural consists of four main parts, each forming the shape of an isosceles triangle that alternate in directional positioning. The bottom part consists of a blue form adorned with smaller tiles and a representation of a heron. The next form up consists of a patterning of green, yellow, and brown that implies an agricultural landscape. Two foxes or coyotes occupy the space between the bottom form and the one above it while a bird flies over the top. The next form up consists of a mountain scene with a large coniferous tree on the right, along with smaller tiles containing the images of plant life and deer. The final, uppermost part consists of blue tiles and white tiles depicting birds, arranged in what appears to be a flying "v" characteristic of migratory birds., Susan Werschkul; Ackerman Hall; EOU, Tile artist and owner of Illahe Tileworks in Ashland, Oregon, artist Susan E. Springer ( Susan Werschkul at time of award) designs and produces a wide variety of decorative handmade tile as well as custom murals and art tile works.

Living and working in Ashland, Oregon in the foothills of the Siskiyou Mountains, there is abundant inspiration in the landscape and wildlife found in the forests and gardens of the area. <br>Always striving to keep a balance between one of a kind custom work, murals, public art and the studio production tile line, each aspect of the work contributes to the development of the other. In addition to studio production lines, Ms. Springer has been designing commissions for residential, private and public clients since 1979. She has completed tile installations for the state of Oregon and private corporations.
