Rivas Landscape Group
A garden, a secret place to dwell with one's thoughts, a place where
one may go and find solace in the often hectic world in which we live. Peaceful and serene, and yet,
full of energy, a place where one can touch the stillness of the inner self while reflecting on the
beauty of the world that surrounds. A place where a merging of mind, body and spirit is possible
and welcome.
As Elizabeth Murray said, "Gardening is the art that uses flowers and plants as paint, and the soil
and sky as canvas." The landscaper, an artist, is one who creates such a place within the context of
another, amplifying the beauty of nature while creating a energy of someplace different, far away
from the confines of daily life while adding to and accentuating our daily experiences.
