About the Artist
Melanie Honebone is a Wales-based fine artist and social
care worker. She often works with mixed media and photography. Recent works
have evolved her practice to include three dimensional mixed media art forms
based on dolls, machines, and the human form. During lockdown this has evolved
into examining the natural world in more detail due to the back garden being
THE place to be seen in 2020 https://melaniehonebone.wordpress.com
About the Bonsai
The Chinese Elms in this paired planting are traditional bonsai subjects although the choice of a planting of two is unusual (odd numbers are preferred as they provide a more visually dynamic composition). I went ahead with the composition because the two trees together strongly represented my experience of British woods with paths through the trees which reach over and form a single canopy. The path through the trees is like a fairy tale.
