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.

In a Suiban without Kenzan
It is hard to arrange a composition on a suiban without using the kenzan. At least three branches standing with their upper parts intersecting with one another and to be secure in place. How to fix branches in position is the decisive factor of the overall composition. You may use nails or wires for fixing the branches, but they must be finished unnoticeable. In this composition my teacher allowed me to fix the tall branch on the side of the suiban standing firmly and giving unique characters.(5-5-2011)
