I work as a landscape designer and restoration consultant in the Texas Hill Country. My sustainable approach produces designs and plans that function at multiple levels. Functions may include solar regulation, vegetable gardens, management of overland water flows, soil restoration and wildlife habitat enhancement. My expertise lies in the identification of existing native plants and the sustainable management of Mountain Cedar (Ashe juniper).
My walks and talks provide a chance for the public to hear me talk about the topics and issues listed above.
One of my favorite topics is the Mountain Cedar. The book I have been writing about the tree will be available soon.
My new business, called Motif, primarily involves freehand painting using low and zero v.o.c. paints. My paintings encompass Mexican, Cottage, Tuscan and Provence styles and can be painted on walls, cabinets and doors. I can also produce furniture, tile and concrete floor designs.
