| Artist's Comments: | The artist's brother David is an avid practitioner of the art of bonsai and here, he is trimming a baby bonsai, a maple sapling. The Japanese symbols in the background spell out these words: bonsai, tree, sapling, art or skill, mind or spirit, as well as others relevant to the art. I have chosen warm golden colours to evoke a peaceful, contemplative atmosphere, conducive to meditation and tranquillity. |
