How to do a Zen garden in SketchUp

Quick answer:

To create a Zen garden in SketchUp, start by setting up a grid pattern to represent the raked sand. Use the Line tool to draw the grid, then use the Eraser tool to remove lines where the sand will be. For the rocks, import or draw 3D rock models, and position them strategically to create a sense of balance and harmony. Add raked lines on the sand using the Line tool, and consider adding a small water feature like a pond or a small stream if desired. Use SketchUp's Texturing and Materials to add colors and textures to enhance the Zen garden's appearance.
