our August 2008 haiga calendars

By David A. Giacalone

July rains and wanes, and it?s time to remind you that we?ve created two haiga calendar pages for August 2008 for your use and enjoyment. Below are sample-sized calendar pages for August from both of our free 2008 haiga calendars ? the artsy Giacalone Bros. Haiga Calendar 2008 and the nostalgic fka Haiga Memories Calendar 2008. (See our prior post from last December for descriptions and links of the free 12-month calednars. Haiga are pictures combined with a subtly-linked haiku or similar poem).

Just click on the sample calendar pages below to go to a printable full-size version. A link is also provided to a larger version of each of the original haiga used for the calendars.
