More from the MABS website, continued from above….
Renowned international 
professional bonsai artists present lecture/ demonstrations, workshops, and critiques of bonsai. Registrants have weekend-long opportunities to observe and spend time with the artists at breakout sessions between demonstrations, and to view the MABS member clubs’ Bonsai Exhibit.

In addition, a wide range of bonsai vendors are on site offering a large selection of bonsai, bonsai-related plants, containers, tools, books and other supplies. Each featured guest artist presents two lecture/demonstrations. Each bonsai creation is raffled following the completion of styling by its respective artist.  There are also silent auctions and a very active live auction of donated bonsai materials at the Saturday night banquet.”

I picked this one up off the MABS site. I don't know who the artist is or anything else about this tree, though it looks like a sinuous root planting. My apologies for the fuzz.  I blew it up a bit for a closer look
