TEACHING / DEMONSTRATING PREFERENCES:

I work on a wide variety of trees and like working on yamadori as well as nursery material.

SPECIAL AREAS OF INTEREST:

I have a soft spot for pines, junipers and maples across a wide variety of styles.

I am an educator of profession and find satisfaction in demonstrating and facilitating workshops. Due to my academic background, I am widely read in the philosophy of bonsai, design and most things that involve creativity.

BACKGROUND:

I have been involved with bonsai for just over 30 years. I learnt from my father and also a myriad of people attending workshops and conventions. My library is huge and growing by the day. This is one activity where you never stop learning.
