Bonsai Styles with Somerset Bonsai Society
Join Alistair from the Somerset Bonsai Society for their 2nd talk on Bonsai Styles. This will be on Saturday 8th June 2024 at 10.30am .
Alistair first came across bonsai whilst learning martial arts in the late 1970's. Pictures of Japanese masters often included these perfect little trees in the background. After a few years of attempting to learn from books, he joined the Bristol Bonsai Society and was lucky to learn from the likes of Peter Adams and Dan Barton, two of the founding fathers of British bonsai. Participating in local and national shows, helped refine his bonsai style and cement a love of the Japanese way of bonsai.
Alistair is now the Secretary of the Somerset Bonsai Society and is pleased to still have some of his first trees, 40 years later.
