This is the first styling of a Blue Atlas Cedar — and it turned into a very different kind of bonsai transformation.
When I got this tree, all of the main structural branches were angled sharply upward. If you’ve ever worked with Blue Atlas Cedar, you know how brittle they are at the crotch. Even if the branch stays attached, your patience probably won’t — those tight downward bends are nearly impossible to pull off convincingly.
So I decided not to fight it. Instead, I leaned into what the tree naturally wanted to do. I used that upward energy and long, sweeping line to build a wind-influenced design — compressing everything on the right side while allowing the left to stretch up and out, like wind-shaped trees in nature.
This one definitely breaks a few rules, but not every tree lends itself to the traditional bonsai form. Some purists might cringe at that idea, but as long as there’s thought and coherence behind your design choices, I think it’s exciting to explore what’s possible.
