A pen and watercolour picture showing a kookaburra on a tree branch with children in a swing and playing with a ball below.

Still toying with my haiku art journal to create #haiga from my #haiku. Pen and watercolour pencils for this one.

If I think there are plenty of resources for those that wish to write traditionally as well as those who don’t choose to.

Thank you. The #DailyHaikuPrompt provides what it call North & South prompt words to use.
I like to challenge myself to use both words in a haiku/senryu.
I often don’t conform to traditional haiku rules. But then neither did Basho.

A pages with three panels, each with a watercolour pencil and pen drawing. The top one of a full moon in the night sky The middle one of a frog in a pond The bottom one of a cricket

Here’s another haiga I drew with pen and watercolour pencils for the haiku below. Turns out my haiku art journal’s paper doesn’t cope well with masking tape.

serenading frogs
crickets chirp
