The haiku appealed to me because it’s fantasy oriented, and that’s what a lot of my stuff is like. I have a goofy style. I draw a lot of weird little people and animals and stuff. None of it really says anything. I do it for fun, and hope people find it fun to look at.
The haiku was also descriptive. Like, it wasn’t hard to get a picture in my head. That’s what I normally do, if I’m reading or something—try to get a picture in my head. So that’s what I did for image with the haiku. You could say, “It came to me,” but that sounds cheesy.
Anyway, the idea for the image never changed much, and I like how it turned out. I like the expressions on the crows and fairies, and I like the colors.
Syracuse's crows
laugh as a fairy ringed moon
paints the frozen peace
