Thanks for sharing John! Very nice Pine with good movement and balance.
What further work are you planning to do to it in Spring?
Do you have any pictures from before you restyled?
Regards,
Steven

Hi John, this is a great restyling. Not only cutting some branches, I like how you altered the trunk angle in the pot too, very very nice. I think now it is a little wild looking which I like very much. It is a deliberate man made wildness, but natural looking, congrats. But I really do like how you tilted it a little and didn't leave it as a simple upright forking in the trunk, very nice.
