Slanting Moribana Variation 1

When we mention the slanting moribana, always remember that Shin and Soe switch postions.

So, in a slanting style, the Shin, Soe and Hikae postions are as follows:

Shin = 45 degrees forward, on the left
Soe = 15 degrees forward, on the left
Hikae = 75 degrees forward, on the right

But discussed here, is the variation 1 style. In this style, the Soe is 15 degrees backwards, on the right.

The materials that I used to demonstrate this piece are green hypericum berries and brownish chrysanthemums.

Firstly, insert the three main stems according to the kakeizu.

Then, add on the supporting stems for Hikae.

Continue on adding the supporting stems for Shin and Soe. Finally, your arrangement is complete.
