Fujikawa International School of Bonsai

I suppose this counts as advertising but some of the guys at Fujikawa have been very kind to me, commenting on my blog and sharing photos. I therefore have no qualms about sharing this with everyone.

I’ll be honest, the main reason I’m sharing it is the fact that’s it’s such a bloody good video 🙂 Love the music and the video speaks for itself about the atmosphere at the nursery. No need for any voice over promotion. I only wish I was in a position to go back to school myself!!!!

Workshop Videos

I’ve been adding these each day over on the Club Blogsite and thought I’d bring them up to date here as well.

First 4 parts of the Workshop Videos from Peter Warrens Weekend here. Each video features a tree. Each workshop participant selected a tree for talking through at the start of the workshop. Then depending on what was discussed, it was followed up with some work. Some great info dispensed by Peter.

The Bonsai Art of Japan Episode 30 – Accents

The latest offering from the guys looks at accents and has an interview to boot.

Enjoy

Peter Warren Bonsai Focus Video

What’s that you say? Another Peter Warren Video!! Well, this one isn’t mine.

 

Two More To Watch

Parts 3 & 4 in the Peter Warren Tree Critique series from my club’s October meeting.

Club Tree Critique Night

I’ve been wading through video taken during Peter Warren’s recent visit here trying to put some useful and interesting stuff up on Youtube for all to view.

The problem as usual is how to edit this together into small chunks that are watchable. I have had to make some clips longer than I wanted but most will be around the 20 -30 minutes mark. I would have preferred 10 minutes but I just couldn’t leave out bits without making it disjointed.

My biggest problem was the guy behind the camera! Phil did a lot of zooming in on nasal hair, ear lopes etc. And people call me an eejit!! 🙂

Here are the first 2 Parts of the 4 I’ve made from the Friday nights meeting. As I publish them on YouTube and the Club Site, I’ll add them here as well. I have more following that taken during the two days of workshops.

Merlin’s Videos

If you haven’t stumbled across merlin’s youtube channel, it’s worth a look. Here is his latest offering.

“Gangnam Style”

When I first saw this video I thought I was going to see a new style of Chinese Bonsai, you know, like Lingnam etc.

Boy was I wrong ❗ Have a great weekend.

Enjoy 🙂

Bonsai Art of Japan 29

This latest one looks at Japanese White Pine. I have learned a few hard lesson about this species in the UK climate over the years. Don’t treat it like other pine species here. Beware of over watering, don’t candle prune and take it easy when removing needles in the Autumn. Some interesting answers in the FAQ section of this video too.
