Haiku on the back of Ladybugs Greet Dawn
June 2009
This is the first landscape I tried. I was learning the way of paint and brush, as well. Painting was very new, and not yet a passion. This "piece" encouraged me to seriously learn this art.
In the Beginning, There was Form and Substance

Haiku Inspired by Painting
June 2009
I did this when I began painting and drawing. All of my life I knew I was not artistic in a visual way. The people in my family who can draw and paint amaze me. I left it to them, until recently. I am unsure as to what inspired me to begin painting, which led to sketching and drawing. I am happy for it. Painting soothes a part of me that writing does not.
People have commented that this has a Monet effect. That was not my intention. I was "experimenting". Just messing around. Playing with my new learning set of watercolors. Forcing myself out of my comfort zone while exploring a new and healthy hobby. I wrote the haiku on the back to explain this.
