Artistic Expression Through Landscape (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781038329486)

We are all artists, whether we use paint, ink, sound, or soil. Art on canvas shares more in common with art in landscaping than many of us realize. Complementary colours, experimenting with different textures and shapes, and layering foreground and background, to name only a few. With an open mind and a playful spirit, we can practise art in our yards and have fun while we do it.

Artistic Expression Through Landscape simplifies the often complex world of gardening. With this step-by-step guide, anyone can create their ideal landscape, right outside their door. While based on the prairie landscape, this guide covers principles and techniques that can be used across Canada. From landscape design and creative landscaping to garden techniques, author Shelly deWaal covers what we need to know to transform our outdoor spaces-and how to maintain them once we do. Each chapter offers small steps on how to start. Learn what can endure the prairie elements, how to tackle a landscaping project, and when it might be best to call an expert.

Simple yet detailed, Artistic Expression Through Landscape is a must-have for any homeowner. Shelly brings nature back into our urban, suburban, and rural landscapes, restoring balance to our ecosystems and ourselves.
