Workshop Details: Special Notes from Holy-sensei

I am looking forward to teaching the Arizona Chapter workshop via zoom  on October 18th, 2020!  The topic is a challenge to arrange sanshuike and shimputai using the same three kinds of material.  Once you register you will receive the URL to the zoom meeting and Video lectures on sanshuike and shimputai.   Please review the videos, arrange  your sanshuike and shimputai,  and send your photos via email or text to me for comments.  You may arrange anytime and send photos to me before the deadline. I will send you my suggestions and you may adjust your arrangement and send in a final photo.   During the actual workshop we will go over any questions you may have and then review each before and after photo of your sanshuike and shimputai.   Hope to see you on the 18th! – Jeanne Holy

Sanshuike & Shimputai using the same floral material

Becoming proficient at arranging isshuike and nishuike is necessary before being able to understand and arrange  sanshuike and shimputai well. Sanshuike and shimputai are  very modern styles.   I challenge you to arrange both using the same kind of floral material.  By doing this I hope you can clearly differentiate between the two.  This will require you to think carefully about your materials and how to showcase the shussho in both styles.  You will not need too much of any material for either style but when cutting  focus on what parts or branches you will cut for use in sanshuike or shimputai.  This is a challenge but have fun with the freedom of it Concentrate on creating beautiful shoka regardless of the material you find to use. 

Some Suggested Floral Materials: 
For Shimputai : 
Everything is good.  This is very personal and subjective to you the arranger. Please look at the reference material to get some good ideas. However since I am from Illinois and you are living in Arizona you will need to come up with other choices! Make sure your materials bring brightness, sharpness  in your shimputai shoka.
For Sanshuike: I
ris leaves, cattails, bulrush, flag leaves,  spirea, euonomous,  eualia, hosta, tropical foliage, maple, bittersweet, sweetspire,  gladiolus, Japanese Anemone, toad lily, chrysanthemum, yarrow, butterfly bush, poke weed, hydrangea, winterberry, pinks, lily, lizianthus, and too many to mention. Since this is shofutai you will need to show shin, soe, tai form, so please keep that in mind when selecting.
