Line and Mass

I love this arrangement very much. While the elegance and beauty of the gypsophila with peonies creates the mass in relation to bamboo vase, one single vine branch, used upside down, elevates the whole! The balance between the line and mass in an Ikebana art piece is extremely important and not always easy to achieve.

Tonal Harmony

Colorful Tulips, Plum, Salix tortuosa

I think the tonal harmony among the stoneware vases and the colorful tulips highlight this work. 

Tonal harmony of the tulips with the vase is very satisfying

Spring is in the air!
