Oasis design show w/Loann Burke AIFD 4/22/12

The first half of the show demonstrated the multi uses of the various types of products produced by Smithers-Oasis.  Loann used megabead wire, flat colored  cane, and colored midollino in these examples.

This arrangement was made on the new floral foam risers.

I believe Debbi Barrett Holt AIFD designed this piece incorporating midollino.

Diamond wire used as a grid/armature in this arrangement.

These photos were taken on Monday,  Feb.  20.  Some of the forms are almost finished.

Detail

Sections still under construction.  Note the cords tied to the ends to create a bend at the tip.  The cords are later removed when the structure solidifies.

Lighter colored sticks are used to emphasize the lines.
