NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:
Illustration description: A cartoon with sketchy line art and splashy colour. White background, haiku just right of the upper centre in black Microsoft Himalaya Regular font. A dark brown baby bird sits in a nest on a flat, blue surface, mouth wide open as if calling for food. To its left and just behind the surface (presumably a table), the head of a green-eyed ginger cat peaks upward. However, it does not look at the bird, but at the nozzle of a spray bottle leaning in from the upper right corner, a single blue drip indicating it is ready to be used….
I am mostly a visual artist, but I like to create "found poetry", specifically daily haiku made from the statuses of my Facebook friends. It was my Mom who started this, and officially passed the responsibility onto me when she became too busy.
