<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3879" style="border-bottom:#cccccc 1px solid;border-left:#cccccc 1px solid;display:inline;float:left;border-top:#cccccc 1px solid;border-right:#cccccc 1px solid;margin:0 10px 5px 0;padding:0;" title="fruit tree 22" src="http://brucefong.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/fruit-tree-22.jpg" alt="fruit tree 22" width="130" height="121" />It is not often that I  look at a plant for sale. Every plant that I have ever purchased has had a short life span. I&#8217;m so consistent at killing anything green, I could testify that the plants audibly beg me to pass them up.</p>
<p>Yeah, who knew that that old fad of talking to your plants has a corollary: them talking back to humans. No, they don&#8217;t talk to everyone that walks by and glances their way. But, it seems like they call me a serial chlorophyl killer.</p>
<p>But, this was a unique plant.  It is a Penjing.  That&#8217;s the Chinese art form of growing a small tree in a pot.  Many are familiar with the Japanese style called Bonsai.</p>
<p>I took a chance and bought the Penjing plant.  Weeks went by and new growth appeared.  Now, it has been years since my Penjing plant has followed me from place to place.  It reminds me of the kind of life that only God can give.  There is a patience that comes with watching something green that grows. </p>
<p>God provides the sunshine.  He has created the water that I serve only as a bucket boy for the thirsty flora.  It is a memorial of one of the great lessons of spiritual living.  Patience is a valuable quality that can never be rushed.</p>
<p>James exhorts Christians who are all to be in pursuit of righteousness to exercise this kind of patience.  Just as a farmer patiently works hard but then waits for God to produce the fruit.  Similarly, we all should exercise the same kind of patient waiting. </p>
<p>That is not a discussion but a mandate.  However, he does not strap us with a millstone around our neck.  He doesn&#8217;t give us an impossible task.</p>
<p>He directs us to be patient.  Before we can moan over the burdensome nature of this time restraint, a time limit is identified.  We can target our endurance with patience.  When Jesus Christ returns, our patience can end!  There&#8217;s a reason to hope and persevere.</p>
<p>We know that we are NOT being patient when we grumble against each other.  If we yield to the temptation of grumbling James tells us that the coming of Jesus will not be a welcome appearing but instead, He will be our Judge who will adjudicate our grumbling.  Be patient, Christian, especially with people.  Persevere, just until the Lord comes.</p>
<p>James 5.7-9</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><!--– sphereit start –--><a href="http://www.adana-usa.com/">Aqua Forest Aquarium</a> is a retail aquarium store located in the San Francisco Bay area that specializes in the &#8220;<a href="http://www.adana-usa.com/index.php?main_page=afa_aboutus">nature aquarium style concept</a>.&#8221; The design creates living artwork through naturalization and strategically choosing and placing rock, wood, living freshwater vegetation, and fish.</p>
<p>Certainly, the focus is around the aquatic vegetation, which is accented with pieces of driftwood and/or rock.  Species of fish complement the aquatic scene and seem to be as painstakingly chosen, as are the plants, rock, and wood.  The fish are often schooling species, and the different species seemingly complement and contrast each other.</p>
<p>The style is reminiscent not of bonsai but penjing, the Chinese precursor to bonsai.  <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penjing">Penjing</a> refers to a potted landscape or tray landscape.  Certainly, these aquariums are aquatic landscapes in glass trays. In addition, these aquariums, with their unique style, surely illustrate the fragility and wonder of aquatic environments.  Here are some of my favorites below.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Amigos, caminhando ao lado da arte do Bonsai, existem alguns outros arranjos estéticos que enriquecem e acabam fazendo parte do nosso arsenal. A arte do ikebana, por exemplo, ou o suiseki. Suiseki é a arte de visualizar pedras. São pedras que podem dar a impressão de uma paisagem ou de um animal ou forma definida. Podem ser apresentadas sobre uma bandeja com água ou areia ou então sobre uma base de madeira (daiza) confeccionada especialmente para aquela pedra seguindo seus contorno. Existem alguns suisekis maravilhosos. Além do suiseki, uma arte que é até mais antiga do que o bonsai japonês, é o penjing chinês. Neste caso pode representar uma única árvore (fica igual ao bonsai, mas pode ter alguma decoração) ou uma paisagem em miniatura, usando pedras, árvores, água, elementos decorativos como pessoas ou pontes, casinhas, etc.</p>
<p>Hoje eu fui procurar pedras para fazer um bonsai no estilo raiz-sobre-pedra, que me parece ser muito interessante e nunca havia tentado. Mas encontrei uma pedra bem bacana que me deu imediatamente a impressão de ser um rochedo, uma ilha no Oceano Pacífico. Daí coletei musgo, limpei a pedra (não demais, porque queria um aspecto bem rústico) e comprei um prato branco bem bonito (e caro, infelizmente&#8230;) e um vidrinho de anilina azul. Depois foi só decorar a pedra com musgo (ainda precisa pegar) e o prato com areia. Colocando água com tintura azul, dá-se o efeito de &#8220;águas do pacífico&#8221;. O resultado é esse:</p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://www.pixelseartes.ppg.br/imagens/rochedo/rochedo01.jpg" border="2" height="353" width="500" /></p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://www.pixelseartes.ppg.br/imagens/rochedo/rochedo02.jpg" border="2" height="558" width="502" /></p>
<p align="left"> O resultado me agradou bastante, mas estou em dúvida se se trata de um suiseki ou um penjing. Mesmo sem usar árvores, constitui um penjing por parecer uma paisagem em miniatura: uma ilha no pacífico vista bem de longe.</p>
<p align="left">O que acham? Comentem!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Desde el día de Reyes (<i>6 de Enero</i>) poseo un Bonsái, una Serissa Phoetida tambien conocido como el Árbol de las mil estrellas.<br />
Desde hace un par de años me empezó a interesar este mundillo totalmente desconocido para mi cuando mi padre trajo a casa un libro sobre el cuidado y mantenimiento de los Bonsáis,el nombre del libro es Bonsáis: Cuidados y Cultivos de la editorial <a HREF="http://www.libsa.es/">Libsa</a>.<br />
Hablando un poco má sobre los Bonsáis, su nombre viene de Bon (<i>árbol</i>) y Sai (<i>tiesto</i>) y es el arte de cultivar arboles en miniaturas mediantes técnicas como el podado, alambrado o el pinzamiento.<br />
El origen procede de China hace más de 2.000 años (<i>época de la <a HREF="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinast�a_Han">Dinastía Han</a></i>) y Japón recogió su testigo hace 800 años para perfeccionar las técnicas mencionadas anteriormente para conseguir verdaderas obra de arte que fascinaron al mundo occidental.<br />
Otro día indagaremos más a fondo sobre los orígenes del Bonsai, también conocido en China como <strong>Penjing</strong>.</p>
<div STYLE="text-align: center"><img SRC="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2022/2179592259_22ba3042de.jpg" BORDER="0" WIDTH="500" HEIGHT="375" /></div>
<p>Pero antes que todo eso os adjunto arriba una foto de mi Bonsái, esperemos que se me de bien esta nueva faceta ^^ y recemos para que no se muera.<br />
Poco a poco conforme vaya aprendiendo técnicas y consejos los iré posteando en la nueva categoría que he creado. Este post lo he creado a modo de presentación. Un saludo a todos!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Bom, o design está avançando:</p>
<p><img src="http://www.pixelseartes.ppg.br/imagens/flor_jabuti/musgo.jpg" border="2" height="413" width="500" /></p>
<p>Detalhes:</p>
<p><img src="http://www.pixelseartes.ppg.br/imagens/flor_jabuti/detalhe2.jpg" border="2" height="375" width="500" /></p>
<p><img src="http://www.pixelseartes.ppg.br/imagens/flor_jabuti/detalhe1.jpg" border="2" height="352" width="500" /></p>
<p>Vejam novamente as imagens, a estrutura, o ambiente&#8230;</p>
<p>Essa florestinha vai virar um penjing (bonsai chinês onde é composta uma paisagem, com elementos adicionados, formando um lago, praia, pode ter animais, pontes, etc&#8230;) com alguns animais, pedras&#8230;</p>
<p>A idéia é compor um local impossível: um bosque céltico com jabuticabeiras!!! Pois fico imaginando druidas passando pelas árvores, animais como esquilos, pássaros&#8230; pessoas numa carroça subindo a estradinha&#8230;</p>
<p>Vou agora procurar os elementos necessários para compor isso e posto aqui o resultado. Será a união da flora brasileira com a história européia!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Amigos, no último sábado, dia 1 de dezembro, compareci a uma reunião do Papa-Goiaba Bonsai Clube em Niterói. Foi a confraternização de fim de ano do grupo, que se encontra também na internet, no fórum <a href="http://papagoiaba.forumvila.com" title="Papa- goiaba" target="_blank">http://papagoiaba.forumvila.com.</a></p>
<p>Lá foram trabalhadas algumas plantas, principalmente uma jaboticabeira com várias partes em madeira morta e uma goiabeira, na qual foi feita a desfolha e 3 alporques.</p>
<p>São todas pessoas muito legais e foi um dia muito proveitoso e bacana. O encontro foi na Bonsai Niterói, cujo responsável é o Ronaldo. Muitas plantas fantásticas por lá, incluindo uma maravilhosa caliandra que veio de Friburgo originalmente, como um simples toco&#8230;</p>
<p>Confiram as fotos <a href="http://www.pixelseartes.ppg.br/Evento" title="Evento Papa-Goiaba Bonsai Clube" target="_blank">aqui</a>.</p>
