SUMMARY- I had bought and played with his book "Origami Ikebana" first, and enjoyed it so much I tracked this one down too. I don't know how I missed it in the first place - it's completely in my wheelhouse. In this book, he attaches his leaves and flowers to real branches and rocks. I like his created rocks and branches better from "Origami Ikebana" for the same reasons he states there. In this book, he goes into a lot more depth on coloring his papers to get the effects he wants from his leaves and flowers. I was happy to add this book to my origami library.
