I finally took the opportunity to attend EMC Part I in San Francisco this past October. I told everyone at work that this was
not a vacation because I had heard that there was homework and studying involved. I was right but it was a fabulous opportunity to learn floral design from an "European" perspective. It was an analytical process which forced me to think differently and to view design in a precise way.
