this is a black pine that was in an earlier stage commented on by Adair M. on another forum. Adair commented in his kind way on reverse taper, bar branches, spoke branches. Probably he also commented on my wiring.
After a good while I came to the conclusion that most, if not all, of his remarks were correct.
The first picture is the tree in april this year, after a first styling in 2015, on this tree that might not have been ready to work on. that is probably why my teacher didn't want to remove too much branches.
During a workshop with Taiga Urushibata more branches were removed. That is, Taiga made me cut off all branches that I thought were unnecessary. encouraging me in the progress by saying 'be brave! be brave!'.
the second pic is from right after the workshop.
