Haiga 493 Yosa Buson haiku 2


Haiku by Yosa Buson. Artwork by myself.
Haiku, however small it is, sometimes captures a large scene in the nature, and induce the reader to a wide wide world. Buson's haiku here is one of those.

In the haiga, I tried to visualize such a world. For the rape field, I used silk-screen approach, where layers are put together. In this case I made three layers: green, yellow, and half transparent white.

Another impressive haiga.

Are you working on an eBook of Buson's work now? It would be a winner! ;-)

Boson haiga ebook,,,sounds interesting. Might give serious consideration to it.
I did a ebook for Basho's Northen trip, so why not another one for Buson.
