Charles loves being a floral designer and was inspired to create a design that projected his feelings. To create Green, Charles chose a tall container and then turned it upside down. "Creating art with the medium of flowers is fun, exhilarating and challenging.  The interpretation of classic concepts of texture, structure, form, color and theme in unconventional materials brings me great joy"  The unexpected “turn of events” with the use of the vase adds a special touch of creativity.
