David Allen in the Weekly Times rural newspaper

Post by shibui »

Looking through the current 'Weekly Times' newspaper and found David Allen looking at me round a bonsai Ash tree. A 1/2 page photo and nearly another half page article.

Look for Weekly Times rural newspaper - January 9 2013, page 12.

Well done Dave.

I thought I'd put the article up, it scanned a little poorly though.

Great message, reinforced by a dreadful headline. Bonsai. Worth lots. Poorly protected. Easily stolen.

Cheers,

I was about to post a link to the article online, but it wasn't the same article. Seem this headline is used often. *sigh* Cheers S.

Bonsai was supposed to keep me away from the computer; so I got a smart phone to take outside to my trees.

McPherson's observation has a strong resonance in the creative realm. The backbone is design, which has the ability to elevate common procedures and materials. A sad reminder that artistic success is dependent on careful design that transcends technique and material limits.Nrega
