New friend of the day
NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:
Illustration description: A shadowy background, glowing warm in the centre. In front of this, the ghostly, glowing shape of a cat repeats in varying levels of opacity, warming in such a way as to lean toward the viewer. On either side sits a white teacup or mug, handle facing inward. The cups are roughly sketched in flat white, and contain what looks like glassy, brown, semi-transparent liquid, emitting soft, brown steam. The words of the haiku float at the centre top of the image, warped and wavy in white, Caflisch Script Pro Light font.
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.
