Beyond what has been provided herein, we have no additional information regarding this artwork., Ruza Erceg In 1961, Ruza Erceg said to her daughter, Helen, "If I have paint brush, I start to make painting." Helen relayed this message to her brother Joseph, a graphic designer, who, that same day, bought her watercolors, brushes and paper. She immediately began to produce delightful, colorful images. Ruza was born in the fanning village of Imotski, Yugoslavia in 1898 and came to this country in 1922. She and her husband first settled in Pennsylvania then moved to Oregon. Ruza Erceg paints images of her past in Yugoslavia. They are soft and colorful images of rural scenes (farms, fields and farm houses), villages, white buildings with red tile roofs and an occasional painting of a sailboat or of a larger city. Her images are of no particular site but rather of a collective spirit of the land she left so long ago. Numerous paintings are surrounded with delightful painted borders which suggest a painted frame to contain the image., The Oregon Arts Commission has ten Regional Arts Councils that provide delivery of art services and information.

An watercolor print primarily utilizing blue/green coloring with some white, red, and brown. The two large birds, which may be cranes, are the only images colored brown. There are also fish, a praying mantis, and various plants, in tones of white, some of which are painted in red., Dyann Alkire; Venezia; justice, I like etching because I like to draw. Things such as deep sea life, insects, birds, fish, and architectural structures appeal to me, and I combine them in my compositions. Each piece has a certain theme that just evolves as I work on the plate, rather than having a set idea from the beginning.
