When talking about color and flowers, I'm confident that speaking through my flowers brings people joy and comfort and makes memories worthwhile. I designed this floral headpiece for a professional photographer – Osher Partovi. The idea was to create a headpiece with dark red colors which express mystery and deep emotions. I brought all my emotions into it! My day-to-day life is visible in this floral design.
Talking Through Color and Flowers
This design that I created for my customer, was in a dramatic style. In this work, I poured all my emotions into the design to impart a story to the viewer. It was a rendition of things that happened to me lately and affected my everyday life.
I treasure the fact that I can tell my stories without words - through flowers - through the beauty of nature.
Steps of Designing
First, I wrote down all the emotions that I would like to express through my design. My next step was to choose colors, textures, shapes of flowers, and other materials. After I had all the information that I needed, I proceeded to choose the techniques that I would use to achieve my final visual design.
In this design, I used dark dramatic colors. I gave the Safari flower a new life by drying them and coloring them with flower color spray in order to achieve the color shade I desire.
Techniques for This Dramatique Headpiece
I built a wire structure base as a hat with special attention to balance and taking into consideration that it should be comfortable for the model/dancer to wear on her head. I bound a dry branch to the hat structure base in a way that would create balance and stability while I am adding the fresh flowers. The techniques were - wiring, binding, wrapping, and gluing. All fresh flowers are in a water tube wrapped in brown floral tape.
