Haiga : Discussion and links

[Tiger the Lion]

Watching justlikeyou's journey into haiga and reading ray's responses has got me thinking and googling.

At The Bank

Also: Those haiku painters didn't relegate their haiku to the far border of their
haiga, they inserted a nice margin between them and it. Some put the damn things
all over the frame:

In searching for translations, particularly of the waterfall, where the brush stoke seemed to join so well with the image, I came across this looking for the deer, which as a novice I found interesting.

Haiga and the world

I'm guessing Ray has other links that would be helpful.

I'm also wondering if anyone knows of a program that lets the lines float around on the image, thinking of a piece I did for NaPM that would be fun like that.

Also, tamara was active for a short time and posted some. Although ray's poems might not fit the absolute definition, anyone interested in the integration of poems and images should certainly take a look.

There is also an Ekphrasis thread in Poetry Practice and a prompt from NaPM NaPM Apr 6 2015.

This seems to me to have interesting points about the interaction and balance between poem and image.

Well this was a fun exercise on how to post an image. Only took me twenty tries.  (thanks Ella)
