This last two weeks, my mind has been wondering and thinking about the Philadelphia Flower Show- my Ikebana design, besides the regular monthly class lesson. It's been quite busy!
Three Lesson for February (2/17/2020)
1) Making Ikebana from the heart - Book 3 p.59
I picked this ceramic container, because I like its color and shape. And it happened, I had the yellowish lichened branches to match the container's partial gold spot. Together I made a simple beautiful Ikebana. Whatever the lesson is, I always put my heart into my arrangement and it is reflected in my Ikebana design. So it gradually become my own style!
