Luminous Bougainvillea. Yesterday we featured a Buttonwood by Paul Pikel. Today we'll stay with Paul (while inviting some other Florida artists) and we'll start with this Bougainvillea at the Epcot (2009). You can read about it and more at Orlando Bonsai.
Yesterday and today could be called Paul Pikel day here at Bark. Yesterday we headlined a famous Buttonwood of Paul’s (a better photo is below) and today I borrowed the Three Ring Bonsai Circus title (above) from an article by Paul at Orlando Bonsai.
In the course of exploring Paul’s bonsai and his writing, it was a very short trip to Bonsai Societies of Florida and a whole host of other accomplished bonsai artists. I guess we could’ve titled this post; Paul Pikel & Friends.
This shot was lifted from a Bonsai Societies of Florida video by Jackie Barret. The photography is by the eminently accomplished Paul Pikel. As you can see, the tree belongs to Randy Clark, an old regular here on Bark.
Same video.
And once more... There are plenty of other trees on the video.
This little Ficus belongs to Paul.
Here’s a better shot of Paul’s famous Buttonwood. It won the All American award at the 4th U.S. National Bonsai Exhibition and this is the photo that appears in the Exhibition Album.
Now back in stock. Our most popular and affordable bonsai tool. And yes, it’s exactly the same great tool. Only the color of the handles has changed.
