Moribana With Straight And Curved Lines
Moribana with straight and curved lines is an arrangement where you want to show both straight and curved lines in one arrangement. Because sometimes, when you want to show straight lines, it needs some curvy lines to bring out more of the 'straight' character. Here's what I mean. In the example below, I used dendrobium orchids for the curved lines and horsetails to show the straight lines. Although the horsetails were straight, I added a little twist so that the horsetails are arranged slantingly, but still can show the straight lines. In another example, I used horsetails to show the straight lines and anthuriums to show the curved lines. If I were just to choose these two materials, the arrangement would have looked OK. But, I added a stalk of japonica and introduced more curved lines to the arrangement. As a result, the 'straight' characteristic of the horsetails are further enhanced.
