Bonsai Art
This lens is dedicated to the hobby of Bonsai Art. I know it is not your traditional painting, but it is years of training, growing and pruning to turn these trees into little pieces of art.
There are a lot of Bonsai that are worth more than "real" art work! The following are my favorite types of Bonsai Art!

My Favorite Bonsai Art
My favorite from of Bonsai art is what is known as the group or forest Bonsai. This is where tow or more Bonsai trees are placed together in the same setting and the result is a beautiful miniture forest!To me this is the greatest of all Bonsai's because it takes much more work and care for the whole forest than it may for one plant.
Other Bonsai Art That I Like
While the formal-upright style of Bonsai may be simple, it still is very beautiful. It is like the tree is caught in a moment of time and frozen in its miniature state.Another favorite of mine is not a style as much as it is a technique. It is called deadwood. The gardener will grow the Bonsai and remove the bark of the trunk and limbs giving the tree a dead like quality, but with it still producing leaves or needles. It just looks like some kind of rebirth of somesort and is breath taking!
