Some more recent news on this front...
I am working with a local painter that does great Japanese Art work and Bonsai Tree portriaits. He has done two for me in some demo's that we have done together. He will be at the event doing some free demos and will take orders for tree portraits. He has also agreed to donate one of his paintings for raffle. I will post the raffle on my website as well. Here is a link to a show we did together not long ago.

this show was a blast... lots of people were there, and sold some trees to boot!
