There, are you happy?

Journal Entry: Fri Nov 17, 2006, 12:16 PM
so this is my first entry in the actual blog.
the first post I made was in the comments section.

whoops. still getting the hang of it.

I changed my work from "photography-humor" to "literature-poetry-visual poetry" or something to that effect.

this was done in order to appease the people who are anal about proper categorization.

well, here's what I think:

if you think my "art" or haikus or however you choose to define my work is "visual poetry" and I think it is "photography-humor", then who's to say that we aren't both correct?

To borrow a quote from the movie "Empire Records",
"I don't feel that I have to explain my art to you, Warren."

Art shouldn't be confined to categories. Granted, I realize that it is just to make everything more organized, but to be fair,

isn't art an interpretive medium?
Shouldn't it be a matter of perception?

if that's the case, then my work has no category. I want you all to take it as it is and don't worry about how it is defined.


I leave you deviants with that thought.

~SenryuMaster:iconSenryuMaster: Jun 27, 2006, 4:28:11 PM
At the advice of many, I have finally started a website devoted to writing haiku, specifically a form called senryu. It is similar to haiku in syllabic form, but different in theme. Haiku focuses on elements of nature, whereas senryu relies mostly on humor.

In addition, I will post a picture (once I learn how) along w/ each haiku (in senryu style) that comments or corresponds w/ it.

Ultimately, I aim to bind writing and illustration together into one element, where both words and pictures can be looked at as a whole.



That, and I need another way to kill time. I get bored easily.


Enjoy...
