Bonsai in Bloom – Original 1972 Ink & Watercolour by J. Lamond

An original 1972 ink-and-watercolour work on board by J. Lamond, this piece depicts a cluster of flowering potted bonsai — soft petals, hand-drawn linework, and warm natural hues giving it a gentle, contemplative charm. There’s a sense of slow time here: greenery tended with care, blooms coaxed patiently into shape, and the beauty of small, intentional spaces.

Framed in its original cream timber frame, it pairs beautifully with “Garden Stairway” (1973) and shows the artist’s same distinctive sketching style and warm palette.

Deb’s Note

“There’s something deeply soothing about this one — it reminds me of a Sunday morning pottering in the garden. It feels like the stillness before a breeze, or the quiet pause before new blossoms open.”
