JOHN NAKA REMEMBERED


Click the image to get full size sketch.
This is a sketch by the venerable bonsai teacher John Naka. John was one of the early founders of our club and used to come to our club several times a year. I still have this tree that he restyled and sketched.


This is a photo of John and I working on one of my trees.
I still have this one although it looks healthier in this photo.

This is a copy of the L A Times obituary for John. He was loved and revered by bonsai students and masters throughout the world. I feel truly blessed to have known him.
