For me, there has been no greater outlet for my creative energies than the call to design a theatrical garden. The possibility of mixing fantasy and fable blends with the capacity to work with professional horticulturalists and craftsmen - the result being a remarkable botanical stage set. As a student of this varied and magical discipline, I find myself striving to reach a little further than the common “show garden” effort, seeking out assistance from other artistic disciplines and working to present unusual flora within a complex theme. We have worked with an eclectic mix of creative folk, from model train enthusiasts to Lewis & Clark historians, from a team of armored knights to natural dye experts and collectors of international antiquities and precious Native American artifacts.
Throughout all of this, I have struggled to understand what fires and sustains the passion to create. Where does the passion to design originate and what sparks your creativity?
