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.NregaMojo Moyogi wrote: ↑January 11th, 2013, 12:04 pm Great message, reinforced by a dreadful headline.
