I concur with Grant, if at all possible, get there to see Mauro, a great teacher and communicator.

Yesterdays workshop was great!

Mauro is a really good teacher. His no BS hard but fair style really works. As mentioned in another thread he really doesn't fart around. He knew from the get go the best way to go but we discussed all options and then he explained why he thought this was the best etc. Highly recommended!

Here's a progression of the Juniper he helped me with:

VERY happy with the result and most importantly I leant stacks. Really need to work on my wiring..... :oops:

I'm going to enjoy this tree for years to come.

Thanks to Brenda and everyone else involved and special thanks to Leong from Bonsai South for putting this is the ground when I was 7 years old!

One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

I was lucky enough to be at Mauro's workshop on Wednesday. Very enjoyable day and a great teacher. The end results on the two big Junipers were a real eye opener......Bellissimo .Pictures don't do it justice Reece ,going to be something special. Cheers John.
