Last Four Entries $100 Bonsai Art Contest 3/15/10

yourientry

Drawing by Youri Boerlage. Youri didn’t write anything about this, but it looks like a juniper with some very wild jin and shari.

Matt

Drawing by Matt Cooke’s girlfriend. This is a sketch my girlfriend did for me. As I was busy repotting in early March she had to keep herself entertained. (thus the playful comments). I believe it is pen and water pencil. The drawing is of my recently acquired mountain hemlock yamadori. (Tsuga mertensiana)

pongsatorn

Drawing by Pongsatorn Kanthaboon. Pongasatorn’s only comment is that it’s a Juniperus procumbens. FYI: some common names are: Shore juniper. Procumben juniper, Japanese garden juniper.

BONSAI SKETCH BY BETH

Drawing by Don Erickson of Salem Oregon. “Attached is a piece of art work done on the Oregon coast. I get a lot of inspiration when I visit each month. Not only the calm of the coast but the natural trees that I see. Now, if I could just find a pot large enough, and a truck large enough I could get some home.”

  1. Hi Guys,
    just a little extra info on my tree drawing, (sorry wayne I messed it up with the text)its as wayne already sayd a drawing of a juniper. I had seen it standing in my neighboorhood,this was one of the plans I had but it wasnt ment to be, as the garden it was in got reorganised and(aargh) the tree got destroyed. :-(
    Its a drawing done in fineliner and copic marker, the dead wood is still a bit wild, but I did not know exactly which branches would really become jin back then so I kept it wild….

  2. I vote for the Juniper from Mr. Youri.

    The detail looks great!.. Especially the dead wood around it..
    Hope that one day you can find the right one to make it like this :)

    Keep it up guys!
    Greets Mike
