Making Bonsai A 1-2-1 with Angelica from the USA

  • During the year I do a number of 1-2-1 workshops with those wanting to learn about Bonsai. Often I tailor make these sessions based on what the individual would like to learn. In this video I work with a UA-cam fan from America to create a cascade bonsai.

    How amazing is Angelica? A pilot, plays stringed instruments, does bonsai like a boss and doesn’t run scared from some guy heavy breathing behind her! And what a doll!

      @patrickparmer1648 4 роки тому +1

      Exactly. Art is subjective. If you dont like someones are, youre trying to admire the wrong artist for your taste. But there are standards of art. Thats why not anything can be art. Like mud pies. It takes no real skill, anyone can do it, and its not entirely beautiful. While sand castles on the otherhand, take skill and theyre beautiful. There are "principles" as peter says. And "the true enjoyment comes from doing it well." Doing it well makes you happy, doing it well makes it beautiful, and if doing it well makes it beautiful and you, happy, then its art.

    Angelica, always use way extra wire, wrapping shortens the wire and when you get to the tip of the branch, often the most delicate and thin, having the extra length lets you wrap the tight radius without having to use pliars and undo stress on the tree, I learned getting tired of poking my fingers with a short just right length piece of wire. Looks like you had a great time, I'm a glider pilot, 70 hours of power and sailboater so I feel your need, too many hobbies for me too.

      Steve AnacortesWA Thanks for the advice! I usually find that if I roughly measure the branches with the wire, then cut with a couple inches extra, I get enough wire AND minimize the wasted wire. I cut more/less based on the thickness of the branches. I actually learned a cool little trick watching Peter up close: at the end of wiring a branch he’ll loop the wire back onto itself so once you move the branch the wire doesn’t come undone!

Hopefully we can setup a session with Peter somewhere in the area, would be nice to do in the presence of the Bristlecone and Limber pines. Loop the wire back, got it.
