Tree: Black Misison Fig
Bought: Redwood City supermarket ~$15
Training: No really training, just been sitting in the RB for a few years, once in a while I'll pull off a leaf or pull some weeds out, but... Large plastic pot.
Update Dec 2011: Drawing's kept trunk only pencil thick, but current trunk thumb, and base much bigger - see photo.
Style Ideas: Kind of grainy (first gen iPhone) but it adds to it by making a soft feeling, the cascade reflecting and shadowing over water. The exposed root of rock is a visual bonus - I don't know what the tree's roots look like yet. Pot has the illusion of feet, though it actually sits right on the ground.
