Free Style Arrangement Using Rope Structure

In Hata Sensei's class this month, each student was asked to purchase 15 feet of twisted rope or hemp and 15 feet of #8 gauge wire, copper or other. We untwisted the rope a bit as we inserted the wire into it. Then we created a swooping movement with the rope to construct arrangements. It was a fun and creative class. 
The resulting arrangements shown below are 5 different designs of 5 students. Sensei's suggestion and correction made each arrangement look much prettier.  See below to compare the before and after.
My arrangement: rope, sunflower, mum, burning bush and magnolia leave/ ceramic vase
