I attended a demonstration given by Hal Mahoney, a nationally recognized bonsai and rock penjing expert. Here are some pictures of his presentation. During the course of an hour, Mr. Mahoney walked throught the basic steps of creating a well-rounded penjing display from how to flatten the rocks using quick drying cement so they stand up in the display to adding depth of field and dimension, to placing the final touches including trees and other foliage.
I learned more about bonsai in the one hour demonstration than I've been able to learn in more than a year of research on the Internet. If you like bonsai, I recommend you take the time to attend one of Mr. Mahoney's rock penjing demonstrations.
