- Description
- 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.
