Day 2: Second competition task: A table decoration for Silleteros

This theme is based on the traditional march of the Colombian “silleteros” and their designs. Competitors will have to design a round arrangement on a support table.
The arrangement will be made on round floral foam. Shape is round. The arrangement must be more than 1 meter in diameter. Color is free.
My design is traditional in a circle trying to bring a bit of the Silletera tradition with varieties of flowers. Since we are in Colombia, heart from flowers I included this symbolism in my composition.

Use mixed flowers in shape and color.

The harmony of color will be a split complementary.

Day 2: Third competition task: A bouquet from the Amazon.
The amazon has a wide array of different flowers and greens that cannot be seen anywhere in the world. This theme focuses on the most common floral arrangement: the bouquet. Competitors will make a bouquet by incorporating flowers and greens from the amazon.
The arrangement will have a minimum of 30 stems and it must be possible to carry the bouquet by one person. Competitors may use a structure for the bouquet that will be made during the days given for preparation.
Shape and size is free. A Complimentary color harmony must be used. The bouquet will be made in a spiral form with one binding point.
I made a wire framework with a neutral color, to apply a composition of purple and green flowers.

To Roxana Barrientos, Director EIAF, for her passion and dedication to our profession.
