Haven’t uploaded this pine yet, it was one I purchased from bonsai south for the Mauro Stemberger work shop mid year. But due to family emergency I couldn’t be there for his work shop. (Spewn)
Ended up sitting at Leong’s shop for a few more months before I got to style it.

Geez I like that initial styling Pebble - good work! I like the lip on the pot too. Further, I am envious of what appears to be an excellent workshop too!

Add to that the use of the word Spewin’ and what we have is a ripper post. Well done!


Bonsai teaches me patience.

What lies beneath!

Very nice, Did you add to the trunk bend or was it already there?

I was just staring at a JBP, picked up at Bonsai south, no less and wondering if I might do some wiring on it now before de-candling in early Jan. It's only a $35 job, trunk is about 3-4 cm diameter, no where near as impressive. It will make a very nice informal upright.

Put me down with MJL as loving the use of 'spewn'. Some Aussie jargon thrown into the bonsai lexicon never goes astray(a).

would you consider tilting to the left and making it a cascade?

Jiro, couldnt agree more. no most of the bends were all there already. just uncovered the tree with in.

No idea: I did consider a semi cascade, there was a perfect branch there for it. (now a jin)
i was much more drawn to the informal upright for this tree.
