I have great faith that technological solutions to our climate change problems will be found in plenty of time to prevent disaster – and high hopes that a tangential idea (such as might occur when reading some computer-generated clean energy haiku) will inspire such a technological innovation.

Plan C is another approach to producing a 17-shape haiku illustration or haiga – posterizing watercolour sketches from the Japan sketchbook I posted last year.  The posterizing process eliminates much of the detail and reduces the number of colours in a picture.

This haiga illustration is a posterized version of one of the sketches I wrote about on December 27.

I will post three more examples of haiku and haiga over the next few days.
