Poetry and art from the heart; with many thanks to the cultural
delegation sent by Japan to Edinburgh one weekend at the Assembly
Rooms on George Street - I wandered in with my daughter and we learned
how to do Japanse paintings with beautiful paper on board speckled
with glitter supplied to us by kind women who showed us how to dip
our brushes in the black ink and gave us a red ink stamp to sign
our work. That is where I first learned of haiga, and as I have
always respected haiku, this now completes my enjoyment of the art.
