Clermont Garden Club is excited to have Adam Lavigne demonstrate the art of bonsai at our general meeting, October 18, 2017.
Mr. Lavigne is an artist in every sense of the word. He can paint draw, sculpt in wood, metal, etc., and do bonsai, the ultimate art. Mr Lavigne works on the smallest to the largest trees and specialize in carving work. In bonsai, Mr. Lavinge is interested in Yamadori and liberated trees, from garden centers. Mr. Lavinge has a growing collection of carving work at Wigert’s nursery on Pine Island. Mr. Lavinge feels that any specimen has potential for bonsai and he can pull a tree out of the meanest example.
In bonsai, Mr. Lavinge gives demonstrations. run workshops, and display his art. In his backyard, is a growing nursery where Mr. Lavinge is raising trees from seedlings all the way up to very large trunked specimens.
In addition to all of Mr. Lavinge’s artistic abilities, he can play guitar and is a cunning linguist.
You don’t want to miss this fascinating program. Bring a friend.
The meeting is at Clermont Garden Club’s clubhouse, 849 West Avenue, Clermont, Florida. Meeting starts at 10:00 A.M.
