The Whispering Crane Institute
I am a Professional Landscape Designer, writer, lecturer, artist, and teacher. I design residential, industrial, and commercial landscapes; using both curvilinear and geometric themes. Adapting to the needs of the client and the site. The Whispering Crane Institute also provides seminars and workshops for those in the "Green Industry" from our World Headquarters in beautiful East Central Ohio.

“A leaf falls-
fluttering.
The Earth reaches up-
grabbing it“
-written in one of my sketch books.
My hope is to use this site to spread some info about the art and practice of Landscape Design. It is a very misunderstood profession; I do not cut grass like the next door neighbor's cousin who carries 3 mowers and a blower in the back of his truck.
I will also pass along comments on industry happenings, events, etc., and any maybe a few other adventures going on in my world-after all this is "my" blog. Thanks for stopping by and taking a look. Questions? Drop me an e-mail.
