Japanese Winter Berry
Bonsai Number Two
I'm really enjoying researching bonsai in connection with making my bonsai ring sculptures.
One thing I've learned is that bonsai can be quite large: some are upwards of 3 ft tall and over 350 years old!
I love "mini" bonsai - not surprising really, since they fit very nicely with what I'm doing with my rings.
As I continue with this series, and as I learn more, I'm going to try to follow bonsai conventions.
