"Without tradition, art is a flock of sheep without a shepherd. Without innovation, it is a corpse." Winston Churchill. Back @seattleartmuseum with our Decked-Out exhibit mascot, JP. JP is the first bonsai displayed in public with a graffiti bonsai pot on a skateboard stand. Churchill would approve. #bonsai #deckedoutpbm #seattleasianartmuseum #notyourfathersbonsai #churchill #graffitiart #skatedeckart #pacificbonsaimuseum #pacificbonsai (at Seattle Asian Art Museum)

Research and writing on traditional bonsai display for our upcoming Decked Out exhibit. "Classic Bonsai of Japan" has one of the best Histories of Bonsai in print and Yuji Yoshimura's "The Japanese Art of Miniature Trees and Landscapes" is an essential for any bonsai library. #bonsai #bonsaibook #deckedoutpbm #pacificbonsaimuseum #pacificbonsai (at Pacific Bonsai Museum)

One of the greatest thrills in life and in bonsai is when something you have been envisioning for years finally becomes reality. Much like our upcoming exhibit featuring skatedeck art and bonsai, I have always wanted to see what happens when you give a bonsai pot to street artists. This jwp is the new Decked-Out mascot and will be popping up all over Puget Sound this Spring including the Tacoma Dome tomorrow. #bonsai #deckedoutpbm #graffitiart #pacificbonsaimuseum #pacificbonsai (at Pacific Bonsai Museum)
