Kilmeny Niland : a tribute

Kilmeny Niland is best remembered in Australia for her beautifully illustrated children's books.

She also practiced haiga. With the permission of Kilmeny's immediate family, American artist and haiku poet, Olga Hooper (Origa), has produced a fitting tribute to Kilmeny's haiku and haiga with examples of her work and links to other sources.

This commemorative page for Kilmeny is in the inaugural issue of Notes from the Gean accessible online at http://geantree.webs.com/inmemoriam.htm

It is well worth visiting.
