Michelle & Andy’s Bonsai Soup 8/27/09

Bonsaisoup

I wonder what it tastes like…
I lifted this mind stopping image from Michelle Dougherty’s Bunjin Journal. For some of us, the image alone speaks volumes (a picture is worth a whole bunch of words). For others, it opens the door to a discussion that, before it plays out, may generate more words than anyone cares to count. If you are one of those others, check out Bunjin Journal and The Art of Bonsai Project for some in depth ruminations.

Thumbs up!
Every since I stumbled upon Michelle’s blog, I look forward to her posts. I find her take on bonsai and art refreshing and even daring at times (sorry for the set up Michelle), if occasionally little whimsical (I think that comes with the daring part). And even though I did refer to to her paint-by-numbers bonsai as ‘silly’ (a choice of words I came to regret), I now count myself as a fan. If Michelle’s and Andy’s collaboration catches your fancy, take a peek at her blog and let me know what you think.
