Old haiku and new art journal spreads

July 7, 2023 By Marit Leave a Comment

The sun is shining, there is a nice sea breeze, it’s not too hot yet, I don’t have any appointments for the next few days and the Tour de France has started: in short, I’m lounging, playing in my studio, watch the cycle race on TV and I enjoy.

I had no inspiration to write a haiku so I dug up an old haiku (July 2011.) I remember Johnny Hoogerland’s fall in the Tour de France well, I just hope there won’t be any such accidents this year.

Tour de France

Een man op een fiets
kans op ritzege eindigt
in het prikkeldraad

Tour de France

A man on a bike
the chance to win this stage ends
abrupt in barbed wire

I submit this haiku to Haiku my Heart

I created another spread in my art journal yesterday. I’m now updated to week 26 and hope to work on some more pages in the next few days. Here’s the spreads that I didn’t publish yet…
