Japanese Table Top Dry Garden: Arthur Skolnik This unusual and creative workshop is about thoughtful stone placement. A dynamic and classical Japanese table top dry garden will be created using stones (all bottom cut), flat fingernail size pebbles to create the feeling of rushing water, willow branches and sand. The willow branches will separate the “water” from the surrounding sand. Of all elements in a Japanese garden, stone is the most enduring. Stones are appreciated because they symbolize endurance, stability, strength, character and the virtuous contemplation of nature. Recreating a natural setting, a stream with rushing water is at the heart of this workshop.
Spend a Morning with Seiji Morimae (limited to 10 persons) Bring your own suiseki or two to get hands on information and critique about your stone from Seiji Morimae. Learn how to place your stone in a suiban and what kind of daiza would work best. This is a very special workshop never done in the US before, a real treat!
