Visual Poetry

This section  is a new addition to my site. Most  images on this page contain poetry. A few will not.  Guest works will be included also. This list was opened October 19, 2003, and I'll be building it over time. Please sign my guest book on the homepage or on either of the two poetry index pages with any comment. Thanks!

Haiga is the name for traditional Japanese art forms composed of brush painting and calligraphy of haiku poetry. Modern Haiga is also done on graphics, paintings or photographs.  Click on the thumbnail to enlarge. All images are copyrighted. Do not copy them. If you have special interest in an image contact the artist or contact me. If the artist has a website , contact information will be there. My email address is on my home page. Page three is for non-haiga graphics and photographs. 

My haiga have been published in Simply Haiku (three of the publications are HERE , HERE and HERE), in Haigaonline, (HERE and HERE with scattered others in the multimedia section of the journal), Sketchbook (HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE (and a page with one free verse poem and links to my haiga in the issue HERE) Moonset ,(a print publication) and several free-verse poetry journals such as La Luciole, Mind Fire,, Erosha (now has been hacked and unavailable) and The Oregon Liberary Review...pages HERE and HERE.  I update the links periodically, but I'm not trying to list every publication....just some representative ones. If you follow the links there's some very good haiga to also look over in these journals.

Images are added as I write them, so newest haiga/graphics are on the last pages..
