Location	Cleveland Heights, Ohio, United States
Introduction	I am a craftsman; whether I'm working with silver, wood, live plants, flour and water, or Romex wire I can't help seeing the potential in raw materials and the promise of beauty or function created through the careful application of method and technique. In my professional life I work with art objects, and while I'm not an artist per se, I hope to improve my artistic ability through the creation of bonsai. This blog is mostly about gardening and bonsai cultivation, and is basically a gardening journal to record my own progress,with a few family photos thrown in. I hope others find it inspiring or informative.
