Oshibana is the ancient Japanese art of making pictures using natural materials such as dried leaves, flowers and branches. Centuries ago ago this art was considered to be an exclusive one and only the Japanese warriors called samurais were allowed to occupy themselves with it.
Creating pictures using dried plants helped the ancient warriors to reach soul harmony, develop concentration, patience, stamina and persistence in achieving the set goals.
This art is also the means of self-expression. It shows our fantasies, thoughts and emotional state. Our body tunes into calm and meditative atmosphere that is necessary to create a beautiful Oshibana art.
