Jerome
Kellerhals
, born in Switzerland, has been around bonsai for as long as he can remember. His mom lived in Japan and was a big influence in his love for the art. However, it wasn’t until he moved to the United States that he started studying it in depth. Suthin Sukosolvisi, Min Hsuan Lo, and Nacho Marin have influenced his work.

He called this tree Angkor, in honor of Angkor Wat, which he first visited as he traveled around China and Cambodia. This tree has been exhibited in many bonsai conventions in the USA and was selected for the display of the 2019 Epcot Flower and Garden Festival in Orlando, Florida. Over the years,

In 'Freestyle Bonsai,' you'll learn that growing bonsai doesn't have to be formal or scary. LIke other art forms, tending and training thses miniaturized trees is about finding joy in the act of creation. It doesn't have to be about following strict rules or seeking perfection.
