Hi everyone!
My dad has a ficus that wasn’t taken care of very well over the last 5 years (i.e. thick wire marks, some inverse taper, awkward branches etc.)
I’m still new to bonsai but I’ve made the first step to clean up the tree - about 2 months ago, I defoliated the tree, took out some of the awkward branches, and partially wired the branches.
I was hoping to get styling advice on how I can restyle the tree and perhaps identify which could be the best front. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Note: I believe the first picture attached is the original front.
