Bonsai Gallery

English yew-taxus baccata
Collected 3 years previously from an abandoned quarry and re-potted after the first year this yew is ready for it's first work. February 2006.
 
Eventually I settled on this as the future front of the Bonsai.
Carving work in progress. Basic carving work completed (only the first session). A days work!

The first time we see the Bonsai. Still there is lots of development work to do and the carving can be improved but, after 2 days intensive work the tree will get a well deserved rest until winter 06.
