Today we visited the studio of Masahiko Kimura who is often referred to as “The Magical Technician of Contemporary Bonsai” because of his unique talents and creative expressions of bonsai art. He was among the first to use power tools and show the global bonsai community new techniques and tools for shaping and refinement.
Currently Masahiko Kimura is considered to be a genius and innovator for bonsai and has started new movements to create highly refined sculptured masterworks.
Note the lower section of the stake has been colored white to blend in with the white dead wood areas
Mr. Kimura privately led me to his workroom in the back too show me all the bonsai he was entering the upcoming 99th Kokufu Bonsai Exhibition.
Moss is being grown on rugs in the back of his studio for used when preparing his bonsai
