Miniature landscapes by Mine Susugi

An interesting set of 5 galleries of miniature landscapes resembling Murata's plantings in Four Seasons of Bonsai. Some display coarse moss as a ground cover, similar to kusamono practice. Access to each of 5 sets are listed on this page (in Japanese): miniature landscapes' galleries.

The artist guides visitors through his discipline for creating them, which translates well...

Hi, new guy here...Interesting forums so I joined...

Thanks for the link to Minature Landscapes, very nice, I am wondering where they stop re to size...???

I am experimenting with Penjing which I think is a step up from minatures, I just fininshed a Chinese Elm Landscape and my ceramic container size is 13" x 19" x 2 1/2", my tallest of 2 Chinese Elms is 12" with a 1" Trunk.

I've been in and out of Bonsai for 40 some years, back in it now with more time to specialize.

I'll get some pictures up later.

Dear Chris,

thank You for this very beautiful link.

There are a few very nice pots also shown.
The round pots with the landscapes made me think of
a few very superb historical prints/drawings.

What wonders me , do You think these landscapes are
temporary or to be grown more time in the pot like a bonsai ?
Grasses grow quick , and the acers in the landscapes so young ?

Did You see the boatshape pot with landscape, in a suiban ????
Loved it !!!
Kind regards
