About it
A real bonsai, captured from photos and drawn with splats. Bonsai is the Japanese art of growing a tree in a shallow pot and shaping it with careful pruning and wire so that it looks like an old tree in the wild. Some bonsai are kept for hundreds of years.
Tap it and the board is lifted a little and set down with a bump. Drag to circle it and look at the trunk, the moss and the tiny leaves.
