Having exhibited several times in Japan I have become
fascinated by its culture of exquisite art forms, the tea ceremony, manga,
gardens, music and the arranging of flowers (Ikebana). I have more recently got
to know a Japanese florist in London through other Japanese friends who have
used her to send me gifts of flowers. This Art of flower arranging means as
much to her as painting does to me. I am also making reference to van Gogh’s
sunflowers.
