I’ve been fascinated by the traditional Japanese arts for a while now. I’ve been reading a couple books, but this helped clarify some things. My intention is to eventually combine my interests in ikebana and watercolor and create watercolor paintings influenced by Chinese brush painting and sumie of my arrangements.
Thank you so much. My intention for coming here is to learn the basic placement techniques which you’ve taught so beautifully. My plan is to paint a watercolor Ikebana arrangement using a Kintsugi pot. Blessings to you!
What a wonderful introduction to this beautiful art - just ordered a kenzan and bowl and am excited to practice my first arrangement. Thank you - will be checking out your website soon!
I'm very new to floral design, and have fallen in love with Ikebana style of arrangement. Would really appreciate learning more about creating in this beautiful style.
How fun! I just found your page! My aunt Sumiko Yamashita Lahey was one of the first teachers of Ikebana Sogetsu in America, arriving in San Diego in 1960. I don't know if "master" is the right term, but she was celebrated for her teachings. She passed about 6 years ago. Her work was BEAUTIFUL.
What a wonderful story of your aunt! Thank you very much for sharing it with me. And I'm thankful to your aunt and many of the former teachers for spreading the joy of learning ikebana in the US and in the World!
Thank you for such a clear video and explanation. I would like to ask you a few questions. 1- Is it possible to cover the kenzan with pebbles or other materials? 2-Is it possible to colour the flowers with spray paint in order to create new colours. 3- The suiban is always rounded or can it be in other shapes too? Thank you so much for your time.
I would presume that with fake flowers, you'd obviously forego the water but you could do the same technique with kenzan; however, use something to thicken the base like tied to a wad of cotton and flower wires or something so it could stand. Have you any luck in trying it?
For a table centerpiece, there two points you might want to consider: - The arrangement shouldn't be too tall. The hight is short enough so that people across the table can enjoy conversation without being disturbed by the arrangement. - The arrangement should be enjoyed from 360 degrees, not only from a certain direction.
I teach online, and hold classes for beginners once a quarter. For more detail, please visit iloveikebana.com/. Unfortunately my real class hasn't been resumed yet.
I have recently found out about ikebana and am very interested in turning it in a hobby, so I was lead to this video after some time of research. I do have one question out of curiosity: why must the flower stems be cut in water? Thank you for your time and lovely tutorial!
Could you perhaps put a small plant inside of an ikebana vase? The frog well doesn't come out, but maybe a plant that doesn't require much room could grow there?
Hi thank you for this most excellent video. I wondered if you offer online classes like through zoom or other live paltform? I do love ikebana and really want to study with an expert. Thank you for your consideration.
Yes, I do. But no more beginners' class scheduled this year. I'm planning to have a beginners' class sometime next year. Please visit iloveikebana.com/ for more details. Thank you, Akemi
I love this video. Simple English and straight to the point.
Pour moi l'Ikebana est l'hommage suprême rendu à la nature. Infini respect et admiration pour des œuvres éphémères... Comme une vie en somme !

すごくいいビデオ、ありがとうございました。
お役に立てば幸いです。
はじめまして、 虹潤先生
よいお年をお迎えください!
いつも美しい生け花を共有してくれてありがとうございます。
私の名前は塩田守なので、皆は略してマモと呼びます。アメリカ出身で、日本に5年間住み、日本国籍を取得しますが、今はジョージア州のアトランタに住んでいます。2005年から日本舞踊（尾上流/花柳流）、茶の湯（裏千家）、生け花（小原流）、着付けを勉強しています。残念ながら、私の先生が5年前に亡くなったので、さいきん生け花の勉強をしていません。また生け花を学びたいです。 虹潤先生の生花の動画を観ろと、新しいことを学べるので、心より感謝しています。私の夢は美しい日本文化を世界の人たちと分け合って，みんなを幸せにしたいです。私のつたない日本語でも理解してもらえるといいです。
これからもよろしくお願い致します。
マモさん、
ビデオを見てくださり、ありがとうございます。少しでも参考になったら幸いです。
小原流を習っていらっしゃるのですね。また先生が見つかるといいですね。
私も裏千家です。お茶もとても素敵ですね。
シアトル淡交会で作成したビデオです。私も出ていますので、またお時間ある時にご覧ください。

I am new to Ikebana and I am delighted to have found your videos! I want to know more using silk flowers as well.
I'm glad you liked my video.
I use mostly fresh flowers for Ikebana, though.
I would presume that with fake flowers, you'd obviously forego the water but you could do the same technique with kenzan; however, use something to thicken the base like tied to a wad of cotton and flower wires or something so it could stand. Have you any luck in trying it?
Thank you very much .. very easy to follow the steps.
You are welcome!
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing video!
Could you please tell me how can I purchase your books?
this was so calming to watch, thank you!

I'm glad you like it. Thank you!
Love it!
Thank u.
But I'm curious why need to cut stem in the water
Im very much appreciate if u could e educate me
If you cut flowers under water, the flowers last long because when you cut the stem the water is sucked in and there is no air pocket created.
So lovely and educative, will like to know more.
Thank you for watching.
Thank you very much for sharing. It’s beautiful!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you I am a begginer and the classes are not too cheap, they are expensive where I live
Amei a explicação!❤❤❤BRASIL
Thank you!
ty so much I am so excited to do
Have fun!
Magnificent, is there a particular arrangement style that works well as a table centerpiece?
For a table centerpiece, there two points you might want to consider:
- The arrangement shouldn't be too tall. The hight is short enough so that people across the table can enjoy conversation without being disturbed by the arrangement.
- The arrangement should be enjoyed from 360 degrees, not only from a certain direction.
@@ILoveIkebana Thank you very much
I am very interested in learning more. I also live near Seattle if you are teaching classes.

I have recently found out about ikebana and am very interested in turning it in a hobby, so I was lead to this video after some time of research. I do have one question out of curiosity: why must the flower stems be cut in water? Thank you for your time and lovely tutorial!
If you cut stems underwater, air doesn't come in the vascular system. By keeping air out of the vascular system, you can keep the flower last longer.
lovely tutorial. i want more.
Thank you, Rochit. Let me see when I can produce more video...
Could you perhaps put a small plant inside of an ikebana vase? The frog well doesn't come out, but maybe a plant that doesn't require much room could grow there?
So beautiful , I am trying to learn it
Thank you for your comment. Please keep on learning!
Thanks a lot for the very inspiring video.
Thank you for watching.
