This thread has taken some interesting twists and
turns.

I think the ideal would be that the "artist" would do
both tree and pot as a single unit establishing
balance where the "artist" though most necessary to
the composition. There are times when a beautiful
rock is planted with a small tree used to set off the
stone. Isn't this what art is all about? Self
expression? the last qustion then being whether the
art you have created in a contemporay situation is
still bonsai.
