i'm really upset that i am not even the most talented Jimmy Shull in the world. I search my own name on youtube and google and all i can find is you!!

@LunderThightning Well, if you go by Jimmy, you just may be the most talented. Hell, you might be the most talented Jim Shull, just not as recognized yet.

You should put it on a turntable and rotate it slowly to let people see it all the way round.

That's not a bad idea, however, most bonsai are best viewed from the front and from eye level. The rules of styling a tree as bonsai dictate certain branch placement and I try to follow these rules when making a sculpture or working on a live specimen.. Nearly all my trees look best when viewed from the angle they are videotaped. Thanks for your comments.

I know the rules of bonsai and you've made a fair point. :)

Your work is absolutely stunning!

[KJS72]

Wow thats really good. You could easily sell these y'know. Im an artist and I rarely come across something as good as this. I would buy one from you if I couldnt do it myself...You should set up and ebay store. I think you would sell a lot of them.

That is so beautiful. Are you a professional artist?

[jesstar2]

No, I only create these trees during the Winter as a hobby when landscaping work slows.
