A school? maybe
Masterpieces? hardly
Average? without a doubt
Original or unique? not even close

There are better artists in California to learn from. Boon Manakivitipart, Kathy Shaner, Ted Matson, Ernie Kuo. All teaching very classical traditional bonsai styles in a modern way for the 21st century.

I would ask that anyone wishing to have a try at critqueing one of these trees have at it. I am sure it would most valuable, and fun to boot. Atilla, take just one and give me the finer and lessor points.

Fred, see anything there that has some potential?
