I have an update the times of workshops and demonstration are as follows, they have been wrong sorry.

Saturday 6th Demonstration starts at 9-30 am. Workshops start at 1-30 pm.

Sunday 7th Workshops start at 9-30 am. Demonstration starts at 1-30 pm.

After what has been said by all in the East, this is something not to be missed, and it is free, with plenty of parking inside the grounds just follow the signs.

See ya there Cheers Pup

One more sleep see you all tomorrow, from what evey one over the fence in the south that is. Tell me they were very happy with what they saw and did in workshops and with the demonstration.

Cheers Pup

Oh Yeah. Just like watching anyone gifted at their craft.....they make it look easy! Well done Mauro and thanks B.S.W.A. ....Dog.

Looking forward to seeing some photos of both Mauro's Demo Trees and also some progression from his workshops.

Will post my pics when I get a spare second Bloody camera ran out of batteries half way through, so half my photos are decent and the rest are from my phone. Am sure others got much better shots then me though.

Wish I could have stayed for the workshops, but the demo that I saw was amazing, he's a very friendly guy who is really enjoyable to watch. Really learnt a lot about jin work, and wiring from watching him at work

A BIG thankyou to everyone who organised and set this up

Really am looking forward to seeing photos from WA.

Mauro's visit was certainly a very successful program. Down to earth, no fuss, fun, knowledgeable, generous, talented ... I know that we will be aiming to have Mauro back in Australia again soon!!!

Meanwhile, he is now on a flight home to Feltre.

I did not got to the airport at 4am to see him off. I said seeyalater at the finish of Sunday evening.

That said New camera new lenses and being a puter learner. The new hardware has strange language. We will get there so be bloody patient.
Thats what Bonsai teaches us.

Like you Andrew there are those that should be at these events especially when they are free, but cannot be bothered. Makes it hard for the people that organise them.
However do not knock the people that are always there to help, because they get P!!$~d off at that will not keep doing it.

Cheers Pup

Now I have to work the magic like Mauro lets see if they come up here for those that wanted them. Saturday started with a demonstration. With a Juniper procumbens.

Grat progression Derek; thanks for sharing!!!

Hi Pup,

Thank you for posting those photos of a tree that Mauro worked on. A pleasing result and it reminds me of two other junipers that were done, Noelanders demo Juni from Hilltop last year and Ryan's demo Juni from the AABC this year.

I hope there are many more photos to come as I would think he worked more than just one tree.

Did anyone film any of his demo's throughout his time in OZ ? Would be a crying shame not to have.

Lettuce hope that upon his return to our shores he will come visit Sydney and cities he didn't get to this time around.

Cheers

David
