Enrico runs Progetto Futuro Bonsai. An accredited course in bonsai, across various studios in Europe. He has a great team of guys who work with him at PFB as well as tour with him and assist in Demo's & Workshops. They are making waves all over Europe, in recent times blitzing the English circuit and together with Tony Tickle opening a PGB in England.
Enrico likes to use native material as well as Japanese and Taiwanese Imports. He is consatntly working on projects in patnership with others. Here is a b4 and after of a Spruce in Nigeria he is invloved in. It has taken 4 years to get it to this stage and needless to say still going. You will agree a stunning tree so far! :clap: :clap: :clap:

Mauro comes from the Veneto region in the north of Italy. At the age of 34 he is also a very accomplished Architect and therefor design flows in his blood.
He is highly regarded in the bonsai world throughout Europe and beyond. Already has a long list of awards to his name and is only a matter of time before he takes out the prestigious Noelander Award. Here are a couple of pics of his home town Feltre in the province of Belluno. This is his back yard and play ground...

Hence why he has a love for big Mugo,s

As we speak he is preparing for a demo with Bonsai focus today. You can find many articles of Mauro in past editions also.

Dario a pleasure !!! Till 2moro :tu:
