Style  SHAKAN

                                                                                                 

 

This style has the tendency to represent trees on a slant of a hill and that they are tilted by a side because of the weight of the snow or the leaves. The principal characteristics are: the trunk has to be born tilted by the ground, you/he/she can have or not to have curves, has to be very balanced that is the apex you/he/she must have moved in the opposite direction to the inclination of the trunk. The position of the branches is very important, because from their inclination it will depend if the tree will give us or less that feeling of equilibrium. Another important element and that the roots above all from the external side to the inclination they have to be visible, they have that is to give that feeling of a tree that holds back him to the earth not to fall.
