Though I’ve been writing *haiku in response to my artwork for years, until recently I didn’t realize how haiku has actually always been a part of my art practice!
Last week, going back over my Facebook page - Carolyn Ellis Art - I was shocked to see how many haiku I have written! Now whenever I post any of my artwoek I make sure I include a haiku!
I am currently at work putting together a ten page 5”×5” cardbook book that pairs my artwork with a haiku! O the joy!
*A haiku is a traditonal Japanese poem with three lines. The first line has only 5 syllables, the second line 7, the third line 5!
