Larry.... obviously you didn't look....
I have a thread called "If you don't look you are missing out...." In the articles section. It talks about some of my early experiances meeting Dan. And it also shows a good display of his work. Which is positively signature in nature. When one sees a few "Dan" trees... you will generally always be able to recognize another.
I am planning on posting more projects of this nature. So I have no doubt you will have an oppurtunity to become familiar with his work.
Mark.... Talk about the perfect word to describe him. He is such a maverick. His methods and mindset will either send a bonsai enthusiast off into a tizzy, or it will set you free. There is almost no room inbetween. Not to mention he is a superlative conversationalist.
Graydon.... I am glad you enjoyed it. I'll post more on this tree as it goes along which will probably be later this summer.
Mcspeed.... I have become something of a permanent fixture in the Garden. I spend about 12 hours each weekend, plus overflow into the next week for projects I don't get a chance to finish. He flits around like a bird sometimes. "Oh take a break from that... I have a big branch for us to move on a hemlock.
"
So I can have a hard time being able to finish more time intensive projects.
Kind regards to all,
