Guest Info:
Benjamin is an artist specializing in metal sculptures and now he is exploring ways to combine that skill set into bonsai including using metal sculptures as containers, incorporating sculptures into the tree, and even branching into commercial production of Raku-style bonsai pottery. The first 50 of his new line of large Raku-style pots are available on an invitation-only basis. Contact him through his social media or website to apply with a picture of your tree!
