Re: The Italian Job
Hi all,
I think it is great to have bonsai images from other regions posted here and agree that we should encourage bonsai people from other regions to join Ausbonsai but the internet bonsai club already attracts these people anyway so why don't we just link to the great images on that site?
BTW I didn't know of the work by Stefano Frisoni so thanks for posting these fine pictures Antonio.
Cheers
Brad75.

Re: The Italian Job
A beautiful Elm but it was collected and designed by Colin Lewis who than sold it to Stefano. I have been using this as inspiration for many years. it has not changed much from the original design.anttal63 wrote:Ulmus Procera, Stefano Frisoni .

Yes Bodhi, credit to Colin for starting its very bright future! however the tree is now Italian property and in a higher state of refinment thanks to the new custodian and artist.

Re: The Italian Job
I love the taxus baccata, yews are a species we do not often see in Australia but I would love to get my hands on one.
Q: Why are we all here?
A: Because we are not all there.

Re: The Italian Job
Ok back to buissness, this next artist is Zino Rongo. These guys all have a few things in common one of which is age. The age group is relatively younger by my standards 
30 to 60. This group are serious movers and groovers of bonsai. They are daring,progressive and very committed !!! They are a significant part in the New Order in world Bonsai IMO! Extremely talented and inspiring mentors. So no further ado enter Zino Rongo. Zino collects alot of his material himself.
