European Master Certificate Program in Belgium

I had been asking to myself for a couple of months whether I should pursue or not pursue this great challenge.  Finally, I came to decide to sign up EMC (European Master Certificate Program) Part III in Belgium.  So now, I am in the middle of process of the European Master Certification program by world renowned Belgian floral artist, Tomas De Bruyne.  


Our instructor, Tomas De Bruyne is an author of numerous books on floral design and belongs to the Life 3 partnership with Per Benjamin(Sweden) and Max van de Sluis (Netherlands) .  The EMC workshop was facilitated by highly respected Canadian floral artist, world renowned Hitomi Gilliam AIFD, Director of DESIGN 358.   Hitomi & Tomas spent tremendous time to put this curriculum together for floral designers who eager to learn most update European Floral Design.


I feel so lucky being a team designer of DESIGN358 and working closely with world's greatest floral artists.  And if I could achieve this goal "becoming an European Master designer", it would be a big asset for me.  Thank you to Tomas & Hitomi for creating this extraordinary program.  Thank you to my fellow designers for your kind support....and most importantly, thanks to my husband who keep encouraging me and pushed my back very hard to sign up for this program!


Between Valentine's day madness and teaching, I managed to create following pieces for EMC Part II.  It was fun designing with beautiful orchids from my trustworthy supplier, Dalvey Orchids and here's some design photos from my project.  All other student designers' great design is also shown in EMC Facebook page (See link at the bottom) for you to take a look^^
