• Pamela Babusci is an American poet and artist living in Rochester, New York. She has illustrated several books, including Full Moon Tide: The Best of Tanka Splendor, and Taboo Haiku.
Pamela was the logo artist for HNA 2003 in New York City and is the
logo artist for HNA 2007 in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. She also
makes and sells jewelry and hand painted cards and framings. In leisure
time she listens to jazz, her new-found love. She describes 'taiga' as made-up term for combining tanka with art, in the same way that a haiku + art becomes a haiga. Both these taiga originally appeared in Simply Haiku (see favourites for link).
