Living work of art

"Bonsai. Neprekidan ciklus davanja i uzimanja, između čovjeka i drveta sa vječno živim i nikada završenim umjetničkim djelom."

"Bonsai can show the beauty of a work of art and become itself a work of art, only when it is true expression of the artist's creative power." S.E.

LADY IN GREEN

2007. godine, donio sam sa Ivanščice jednu mršavu tanku jelu. Zašto? Nisam imao ni jednu jelu, lako je izašla. Iako je bila u lošem stanju, primila se i dosta ojačala kroz naredne dvije godine. Počelo je i formiranje. Vitka, tanka, obavijena zelenilom, a kako bi je nazvao ako ne – LADY IN GREEN. Prošle su 4 godine i odlučio sam da je presadim u prvu bonsai posudu. No korjenova bala bila je već nalik klupku vune koje sam nespretno jedva raskopao polomivši dosta aktivnog korijenja. Naravno, nije preživjela.

Naredne godine pronašao sam jednu mršavu tanku smreku. Uzeo sam je. Zašto? Jer mi se dopada taj vitki stajling i samo ime. LADY IN GREEN. Nakon 4 godine jačanja i gnojidbe, ponovno polako radim na osnovnom stajlingu – vitka, tanka, obavijena zelenilom. Uskoro ide u bonsai posudu. No ovog puta sam se naučio pameti. Barem se nadam?

2007 brought from Ivanščica one tiny fir (Abies alba). Why? I did not have any fir, she was easy come out. Although in poor condition, she received and plenty strengthened through the next two years. It began the styling. Slim, thin, wrapped in greenery, and how I can call it if not - LADY IN GREEN. It's past four years, and I decided it was time to move in the first bonsai pot. But the roots was already like a ball of wool that I barely dug up awkwardly, breaking a lot of active roots. Of course, she did not survive.
The following year I found one thin spruce. (Picea abies) I picked it up. Why? Because I like the sleek styling of the name. LADY IN GREEN. After 4 years of strengthening and fertilization, I again slowly working on basic stile - Slim, thin, wrapped in greenery. Soon she going to the bonsai pot. But this time I learned a lesson. At least I hope?

Smreka VP

Ovu sam smreku  donio sa jednog od izleta u visokogorju 2012. godine.Teško se primila, izgubila je dosta grana, a od onog što je ostalo pokušao sam napraviti osnovni stajling. Na nebariju se sam od sebe pojavio i lijepi shari. Još godina dana i ide u prvu posudu.

This spruce I brought from a trip to the mountains in 2012 year. Hardly recovered, she lost some branches, and from what's left I tried to do basic styling. On Nebari by itself appeared nice and Shari. Another year she going into the first container.
