I wish I would have had a tree like that when I started...lol But then again, that's what Daniel has been hammering into my head. Start with something marvelous to encourage the passion of the newer learner.
Glad you like it. I'll get some nice photograps of it this weekend if the weather plays nice. 
Warm regards,

Ms. Vic,
Congrats to both of you. This tree may become something very special, perhaps even famous some day. I agree with the earlier assessment about the pot. One of the reasons the roots from the nebari make a knuckle appearance is because the tree has been in too small a pot for too long. This should be easily corrected in time. Something shallower and wider will not only show off the nebari better, but actually make it a better nebari as the tree grows out instead of down.
Glad to see you have a student's heart and are taking to heart the things your teacher is giving you. You are progressing very quickly, grasshopper.
I would definitely love to see this one naked. I have my doubts about deadwood on deciduous trees, but I will reserve judgment until I see the end product.
Ang3l, great good luck and fortune to you!
