When I go somewhere I haven't been before, I enjoy just walking around. A big part of why I love to do this is to gather scenes from people in their day-to-day lives to include in my illustrations.
The haiku I selected embodies the experience of walking around this city. From walking around Thornden Park, Oakwood Cemetery, downtown, and Westcott, I've built up a little mental image of what Syracuse is to me.
Syracuse and the communities that have lived here for years have been welcoming in allowing me to be their guest for these last four years. I want this poster to serve as a thank you to the city that has become a home and helped me grow into the person I am today.
Sidewalk musician,
the shoppers stop to listen.
Sweet sounds fill the air.
