Artist Profile Mr. Jeffery Carr has over 12 years experience in the planning, creating, growing, and finishing of bonsai. Starting his career on the South Eastern Georgia Coast, Jeff discovered several natural styles like the windswept, Live Oak, and the flat top. He was guided early on by Savannah artist Luigi Trappini.
After moving back home to the Central Ohio area, a completely new outlook on natural bonsai styles emerged. Using nature as his guide, as well as taking classes from several different masters (Craig Coussins, Marco Invernizzi), he combined these lessons and his appreciation of the world around him makes his final perception of Bonsai different from the norm.
Staselwood Bonsai Studio Staselwood Bonsai has provided several one on one training sessions, group workshops, and long-term ongoing classes. Jeff has provided demonstrations and lectures for various garden and bonsai clubs in Georgia and Ohio.
Staselwood Bonsai also provides collection management service for busy customers with existing collections.
