Hi all,
I recently returned from Shizuoka, Japan where I have embarked on an
annual part time apprenticeship with Mr. Nobuichi Urushibata, a shohin
extraodinaire, at his nursery, Taisho en. This occurred somewhat
serendipitously through my working with Rob King on the new American
Shohin Bonsai Society and through a mutual bonsai acquaintance in Japan
(who arranged for the apprenticeship). You can read an interview with
Mr. Urushibata by Marco Invernizzi at this site:

Rob and I went together and will hopefully continue on an annual basis
for short or extended stays.
I have posted a journal at: www.nebonsai.com that I will continue with
4 installments (there is only the first installment up).
Peace in Bonsai,
John Romano
