A book on Dana Westring’s work will be released on Amazon in late March.

Dana Westring has an eye for the picture-perfect vine, shrub, tree and flower in the mesmerizing seven-acre gardens he designed and studiously tends at his home base near Marshall.

His exquisite taste extends to interiors, where his decorative art includes hand-painted murals and more. And now, after seven years of travel to India, sketching and painting all the way, his elegant artwork will soon be on display.

“I went to India the first time with a group of friends,” he said. “I was seduced by the beauty and mystery of the place. I stayed an extra week and then began planning trips to paint and draw after that.”

A book on his artwork will come out in late March, with an exhibition of his work on view and for sale at The Garden Museum in London April 26-May 5.

The children loved to meet the artist.
