Ignore-Amus
I have seen this done by so many bonsai professionals that it is old hat. Ryan Neil does it, Kimura does it and many other too numerous to add. Is foreshortening by bending cheating or just a way to get done what has to be done. Peter Tea is the master at usuing a branch from the back of a tree and winding the sucker around to the front like a ramp on an Egyptian pyramid!
Yet when an old timer purist sees a tree with this discombobulation at the top of a tree where the apex is made out of five 14 inch long branches like a Donald Trump Combover, they say it looks unnatural.
Is it or does it matter?
I await your answers, in all its trainwreck glory!
