February 21st 2015
The Study Group met for its monthly meeting at ABK AOTS Dosoka. The theme of the workshop was to display geometric shapes either through the container or through plant materials and colour. Nine members attended.

| Malathi sensei demonstrated with this compote |
All
senseis were requested to do one demonstration on the theme. Only 2
senseis were present and Malathi sensei demonstrated before the workshop. She chose a black compote. which had a circular top and a cylindrical
neck, and a jar like lower part. She expressed a minimal composition
using Cypres alternifolia (umbrella plant) to form a triangular shape,
complimented with a parallel line with a sharp angle and one gerbera for
colour.
Molly
sensei used golden coloured wires in geometric shape, helconia and many leaves. However, unfortunately, nobody seems to have taken a picture of the arrangement!

Divya Selvam used a black semicircular container, tall and wide which
had openings on the circular side, and a flat rectangle on the other
side, in which she used many triangular shapes supported with a bunch of
white plumeria, and looked good from all sides.

| Nirmala used heliconia with line and triangular shape to a successful composition. |
 |
| Trishala created triangle shapes with bamboo sticks and chrysanthemums for colour. |

Bhuvana and Rupa are new students doing their first book, but both of them
understood the theme and made a bold attempt at it, and it is worth congratulating
them for their work.
