Watershapes Articles

Watershapes Magazine was the industry standard for many years, until the downturn in the economy took a toll on the industry. I was a Contributing Editor with my column Natural Companions for the first eight years of the publication. A collaboration between the fields of watershaping (a term coined by the magazine’s editor and publisher—encompassing everything water features), construction, landscape, design, and its peripheral disciplines. To view the magazines online, go to the Watershapes Archives.
