Chinese Junipers set among moss, ferns and stones have been carefully trained for thirty years by Australian artist Syd Green to create this tranquil Penjing.
Inspired by the beauty, digital artist Jane Long has transferred the Junipers into a magical realm.

Both artists will be exhibited at the inaugural National Arboretum Canberra, International Bonsai Art and Culture Biennale & International Penjing Creation Conference 2018 this September. Book now!
