Workshop with Hans Van Meer

Last weekend I had a great time with my friends from the Slovenian Bonsai Club at a workshop with Hans Van Meer. It was a one day workshop with a great atmosphere, positive energy, laugh, fun, lots of new information and knowledge. 

Among analysing each tree and helping working on them, Hans demonstrated his famous "Van Meer technique" for closing wounds on deciduous trees. The day passed by in a blink and It was truly a  great day worth to be remembered.
