Hi all,
(There is no where to have a post like this, so to the mods please feel free if there is a more appropriate place to move this topic on, and please delete this part)
We have a new face in bonsai artistry, her name is Kirsten Jeffcoat.
Kirsten is an amazing artist, she had been doing many types of drawings and paintings over the years in other areas like landscape and buildings etc.
Kirsten has now moved onto something better bonsai, i will show you some of her drawings which will be shown at the Goulburn bonsai exhibition over this weekend, i will also try to get her onto ausbonsai and explain more in detail and hopefully show more pictures.
let us know what you think
Regards Mick

Re: Kirsten Jeffcoat, Bonsai drawing artist.
WOW 
They are amazing! 
After seeing what Peter Adams is capable of, I've been trying to convince my gf to draw/sketch bonsai in pencil as she is great at portraits from photos. See is starting a business drawing portraits of babies from photos. If only I could get her to see Bonsai as an art form. I have to say though, I think my missus is very talented, but the examples of Kirsten Jeffcoat's art is top notch, and I think it would be hard for anyone to better them.
I would like to see more example of here work. maybe a drawing of Goshin? Well done Kirsten
