Green Dreams: Gardens -  response

Green worlds which border the outside we want to run away from, man-made objects which seem to be so naturally encased in this step off into  paradise – these are the worlds described and justified in their own right in Green Dreams: Gardens. There was a lot of running off on tangents, and referencing/comparing places without photograph notes, or even a simple, concise explanations we won’t get lost in as we’re attempting to draw conclusion from the convolution. The writer is speaking about how gardens are thought to be natural by many, but are man-made. Oftentimes the creator of a given garden seeks to reference or even sometimes mimic or replicate a place in the real world. They’re  havens which are the result of man, that someone poured their heart and soul into, yet are not entirely considered to be a piece of art. For some reason, there are comparisons drawn between landscape painting and garden creation. It isn’t correct to pit the two against each other though, because the creators are of a different mindset and were working to achieve something completely different. There is not any rationale behind comparing two piece which are different in nature, simply because they depict the same thing. Nonetheless, it is very interesting to be reminded that some people are so passionate about the art of landscaping, even to the point of writing about it.
