HAIKU: A Haiku is a form of Japanese poetry. Jonathon Clements book  "Zen Haiku" has this to say “Haiku can transform the most mundane of moments into something special."

For the workshop please, choose your haiku - you may even like to write your own. Create a freestyle arrangement to complement the haiku. Please write the haiku on a card.

Things to consider:
What feelings/emotions do you experience when reading the haiku? 
Can you imagine the scene and what the poet wanted to convey?
How might you convey these into an arrangement?

The choice of materials will help to express the sentiment, Haiku often refer to a particular season (and its colour and features), is it a wintry or summery feel, what colours of flowers, leaves or branches best convey this.  Is there a sense of softness/hardness, happiness/melancholy silence/noise isolation/fullness...

Book 5 lesson 20 Complementing an Artwork = What is felt or inspired by it is important, as that can be a source of new creative ideas.
