I was just wondering... Is it nowadays possible to become apprentice in Japan under "old Masters"? By that term, I mean that stereotypical concept of old person who is willing to teach traditional Japanese arts such as calligraphy, painting, bonsai-growing with necessary addition of philosophy or is it just a romantic image that you get from reading too much books?
Yeah, I forget ... I was talking about becoming full-time apprentice. Like... living with your teacher.
Yes, it is quite possible. You must be committed to your practice and make the right contacts. Here are a few links from some American bonsai apprentices that were or are being trained in Japan.
