A successful bonsai tells the story with ease. As do those.

Gday Jerry!

I really like the abstract nature of the first and second photos you've shown. As Steven (AusBonsai) implies, the composition could easily be mistaken for sculpture.

Do you know what methods/materials Dean uses to maintain the blackness of the wood?

Thanks.

Fly.

Fly,
I am trying to find out from Dean how he treats the dead wood.
Will keep you posted.
