In 1999 I had first experiments with bonsai trees.
In 2005-2006 – a meeeting with the President of the Czech bonsai Association Václav Novák.
Since that time my attitude to bonsai trees has dramatically changed.
In 2008 I took part in the competition for new talents in Uherské Hradiště town, Czech Republic , where I won the first post.
In 2009 I participated in the Spanish Congress EBA in Lorca, where I took second post in the European competition for new talents. In 2010 I was invited as a demonstrator at the prestigious Belgian Germany, Lithuania, the exhibiton Noelanders Trophy and I also participated in other demonstrations in the Czech Republic, China, Brazil, Poland, Hungary, Sweden, Italy, Korea, Taiwain, Japan and other countries.
In 2011 I attended exhibitions in Germany Bonsai Triennale, where I won the best tree of exhibition award. In 2011 I also started my studies of new techniqes, the cultivation and shaping rods in Switzerland by Juraj Marcinko, where I regularly procedures involving bonsai commute several times a year. Juraj Marcinko’s teacher is Nobuyuki Kajiwara. Thanks to this cooperation, I have learned a lot of old and new techniques and trees.
In 2013 I founded the first Bonsai school in the Czech Republic. Nowadays, I work as a lecturer in the School of Bonsai with 50+ students and cooperate with other European artists who are interested in bonsai trees – Václav Novák, Juraj Marcinko, Bogdan Pociask, Mauro Stemberger, Rafael Torres and others. From 2011, I have gained another awards for my efforts at Czech and European exhibitions.
In 2018 I started work in Bonsai zentrum Heidelberg Germany until 2025 when I left this job and started my own business.
And i continue my studies of bonsai techniques and cooperate with other people like Naoki Maeoka, Bjorn Bjorholm, Marco Invernizzi, Rafael Torres and more….
