This is a poetry comics class for spring, focusing on short haiku comics of roughly 3 or 4 panels. Over four Sunday sessions, we'll meet online and look at notable examples of haiku poems, and then learn a comics-making technique. A prompt will be given to help you write a haiku. Then a technique or concept will be shown to help you draw your poem as a short haiku comic. For this class, the focus will be on 4 types of haiku/haiku form: traditional haiku, senryu, monoku, and zappai. We’ll spend a little time writing and drawing together online. Your comic can be finished as homework (which is optional). Students will be able to share their work privately online, if they wish, to receive instructor and classmate feedback. All skill levels welcome.
