Thank you Mike...

BTW, is that true that the art of suiseki begins with the collection of rocks and stones in nature?

The true suiseki collectors do. Some hobbyists at the club level will also buy rocks from dealers that already have the attributes they want. They then learn how to create the base for them to sit in. It's a lot of work to create the wood base as they are usually hand carved and match the contours of the rock to be displayed.
