After 32 years I retired from Jones New York Company as pattern maker. Working at the garden and seeing beautiful flowers is the best way to lessen my frustrations. Since 2008 I joined Sogetsu School Ikebana class under Ms.Meei-Huey Lin,well known Ikebana Instructor in this area. I would like to share with you some of my Ikebana arrangements done at the classes. Welcome for your kind criticism.

Using Both Fresh and Unconventional Materials
"Unconventional Material" means anything other than fresh plant materials, but dried, colored,and other materials which are made by processing originally fresh plants are not included. You can use paper, pebbles,steel,plastic, household commodities,or something seen in daily life. It is important that the combination of both material should be harmonized. As long as you keep in mind that the "Unconventional Materials" are also being"Arranged". In this composition, I used the plastic tube with a strong impact, spiraling on bamboo. (1-05-10)
