PROJECT #2 - Collected Juniper
Fig 12. Stone #2 Here is the rock I'll be using for the second project. It's also feather rock, about 20 inches tall and 18 inches wide.
Fig 13. A Collected Juniper Rock 2, pictured with an old juniper, (collected from my front yard 25 years ago), Together the planting will suggest a mountain tree growing on a ledge.
Fig 14. Carving the Ledge Preparing the second rock by carving a pocket to simulate a mountain ledge. Fig 15. Finished Planting A different style of rock and tree. This bonsai started out life as an innocent garden juniper, growing happily in my front yard, and is the first tree I collected. Its been carved on, and carved on, until the lifeline has shrunk to one small area. My idea for this composition is to show a tree high on a mountain peak, growing out of a pocket on a ledge. Height is 33 inches. Print Friendly Version Print Page Discuss this Article on bonsaiTALK |
