Wonderful haiku and art, Gillena.

Gillena Cox said...

Hi Carol, i used ink pencils not coloured pencils
With ink pencils they are like water colours in pencil form and a brush loaded with water can be used to finish.
Thanks for linking to AFFF

It always amazes me how the tight constrictions of haiku can produce some really beautiful and creative work such as yours.
