Summer Poem for Bonsai in Stage 2a

 

This kakejiku genesis was from a class done at a bonsai convention....I think almost 10 years ago. They were never able to complete the wallscroll, so he sent it to me to finish it. It is a poem (and I believe it is for summer season) which I will find in my Zengo Kichigo Dictionary. I think these cloths are beautiful.

Coyote Howling at Moon for GSBF

(This scroll is sold and is no longer available.)

This is another scroll made by me and painted by Mariusz Szmerdt specifically for my upcoming workshop at GSBF. It has a very American taste to it, and will play a good role in designing a display. It wasr made in the Nidan Hyougu style with very narrow Hashira (Pillars on the sides of the painting) and will work well with a variety of trees. It has a light gold hanging string, and black lacquer wood jikusaki. The top khaki cloth is a benberugu, and the middle cloth is a pure silk.

Bear with Salmon

(This scroll is sold and is no longer available.)

I made this scroll specifically for an upcoming bonsai convention in which I will be teaching a class on display. It is the subject of telling a story of a season. What season does this indicate to you?
