Walter Pall visit in Israel.

Walter arrived on Friday 16 December 2005 at17:00, and by his request was driven (by me) directly to the IBC (Israeli Bonsai Club) meeting place in Kfar Mordechi. After a short break he began his demonstration.

His main message at this demonstration was "Do not make a tree that want to be bonsai – make bonsai that want to be a tree", he also discussed the natural look, sub trunks and the "informal broom".

After the demonstration we had a wine and cheese dinner with the club members.
We all hardly wait for the all day "tree Inspiration" workshop tomorrow (Saturday).

When Walter talks about minimalism and finding the smallest possible tree he's not kidding. My dog has poopies bigger than the stump he left on that tree

Sorry soonami, the Royal Scatological Society says you only get one poopie analogy per month.

Chinese Suiseki looks like a poopie

Now you're done for the next six weeks.

Regards,

Matt

Well this forum is the poopie!

I guess I'll either have to petition the RSS for an increase allowance on fecal references or accept the punishment and be poopie-free for another 10 weeks

I'd like to hear about the workshop today, I'm sure it was a great one

Shalom Moshe! Manishma? Is the workshop in Tel Aviv?
And your working on Shabbat? Now that's dedication to Bonsai!

Happy Growing my friend!

On Saturday morning we had one more demonstration by Walter and then the "Tree Inspiration". Every tree was discussed first by the owner than by all the members and finally by Walter
After the lunch break we all worked on our tree be the guidelines and help of Walter. Our exciting day ended with Walter and some members at an Israeli restaurant.
