Bonsai Focus / KoB Progressive Styling Contest
The First Annual Progressive Styling Contest of the Knowledge of Bonsai Forum is being sponsored by Bonsai Focus Magazine.
The contest objective is to obtain stock and style it into a presentable bonsai within the time frame allotted by the rules. In order to include all levels of enthusiasts and all levels of stock, we have created both professional and non-professional categories and sub-divided these into different stock categories. There is no price limit on stock.
With the goal of presenting a contest that is educational for all, we have modified the usual "before and after photo" styling contest common on most forums and added a few stipulations that we feel will turn this contest into something that can be discussed, learned from, and referred to by all. This contest will also require that participants submit three sets of progression photographs documenting their work. Each of these sets, as well as the first entry pictures and the final photographs will require a brief written explanation of the decisions made, techniques used, and thoughts behind the design.
