alphabet declination A B Blue Bird E M J notes bottom of thirteenth page

Photodigital Image Capture of notes of alphabet declination AB Blue Bird bottom of the thirteenth page EMJ.  This has me working the subject butterflies into the declination.  How much of the shapes of butterflies should I use.  Enough to have the shape be recognizable.  There’s double wings, antennae and two part body.  I’m seeing how I can include the most while flow through the form can be close to fluid.  The butterfly will represent the English Letters “F” and “G.”-Ernie Moore Jr.

This photodigital Image Capture of the bottom of the twelfth page of the alphabet declination AB Blue Bird EMJ.  Moving from studying drawing horse perspectives to a female warrior character from an arcade game–Gauntlet Legends from Atari (Not French owned).  It has elements of that character but elements from that type of character.  I draw what detail I can recall versus going back to the game and studying it.   The details if any were significant, fall away to the minimization I need for designing what would be a used letter in writing.  I look at sword held high, armored skirt and long shield primarily.  Also we can see my most recent~ assignment of subject to letters.  A,E,F,G,H,I–Horse; B,C,D–Dolphin; J,K,L–Lipizzan;M,N,O,P–Pegasus;Q,R–Rainbow;S,T,U,V,W,–Unicorn;X,Y,Z–Blue Valkryie~.  I just noticed that for most of these assignments, The subject has its initial in the letter group.  I wonder if that was intentional. [Butterflies will need to be included so the assignments will have to be reworked].-Ernie Moore Jr.

This photodigital Image Capture of the top of the 12th page of notes of an alphabet declination–AB Blue Bird EMJ.  Horse imagery would be used for multiple letters.  After having studied the head of a horse for icons, I’m continuing my study of the body.  I make a note that I need to understand the leg anatomy better to study the horse.  I decide to work on other icon structures.  I did touch on dolphins.-Ernie Moore Jr.

alphabet declination notes A B Blue Bird E M J notes drawings of horse E M J

This photodigital Image Capture is of an alphabet declination AB Blue Bird.  Oddly my photography and my paintings stem from an interest in drawing realistically. Taking how lines are applied elsewhere or reality I
might database lines or structure to improve the breadth of my drawing.  I thought my going from form to restriction of form could be an interesting journey, viewers, admirers, patrons[(the sounds of)crickets chirping]…that’s my sell point, I’m developing [akin to a photograph?].  If I improve-then you can share in my success, by being there with me.  But as I learn the worlds in which I study, I might be making Continents.-Ernie Moore Jr.

Here’s me studying my understanding-comprehension of horse, to design forms/icons/letter characters.  (No words)-whatever you get out of whatever.-Ernie Moore Jr.

alphabet declination AB Blue Bird bottom of page nine E M J

This photodigital is an Image Capture of the alphabet declination AB Blue Bird EMJ, bottom of page nine–“F.”I have Icons use the same subject.  Some of these seem a search for an alphabet as opposed to an alphabet declination.  When   I got there and realized that my free-form could not be done with their tools I realized I could make a font for printing I had high hopes.  I used part of the methodology to come-up with this font– http://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/803484 .

This is the above, less the webaddress.

SO I would like a one alphabet, yet would work it in the end for alphabet declination.  An alphabet could borrow frm varios generations in the progression or various places in the declination.-Ernie Moore Jr.

top of ninth page of notes on alphabet declination A B Blue-Bird E M J

Diving dolphin; horse face constitute the top of page nine of notes on alphabet declination AB Blue Bird EMJ. Looking at horse nostrils and teeth. For the letter “E” I start to stay on the nose bridge and eye from profile. I consider representing the English “D” with a cursive “J” blending of uppercase and lower case.  That degrades to a number four like character.  Finally for the moment shown, the lowercase “j” opens to a loose “2”like thing.-Ernie Moore Jr.

alphyabet declination A B Blue Bird bottom page eight E M J

This photodigital Image Capture of notes of alphabet declination AB Blue Bird EMJ, bottom of the eighth page looks at “D.” Revisits “C.”  And takes a lengthy look at “D.”  Also, over two days I assign value to the AB subjects–giving each subject imagery a section or small grouping of the English alphabet, with which to transpose-ish.-Ernie Moore Jr.

“D” icon degrade to resembling a four which would be fine, as “D” is the fourth letter of the English alphabet(AB).-Ernie Moore Jr.

notes on alphabet declination AB Blue Bird top of eighth page E M J

This photodigital Image Capture of notes of an alphabet declination–AB Blue Bird EMJ.  These icons are dolphin based.  Showing “B,” “C,” and “D.”  When one looks at these (alphabet declinations) one should look for a progression in shortening.  Shorter amounts of ink.  Shortening of strokes.  And although some later icons have longer strokes the thought was that they save one from lengthier writing by staying connected to the paper.  I’m trying to keep it from being a senseless scribble.  Yet a sensible repeatable scribble that is a progression from a longer mark, that’s reasonable.-Ernie Moore Jr.

“B” started in the last page (7).  It was a dolphin leaping out of the water.  “C” was “B” with a second dolphin leaping. Three dolphins would be a bit much.  For “D I explore more of a full bodied dolphin.  Scaled down as per my skill level at drawing. [Note: I could try and try until I could draw a more complete dolphin, but the idea is finish the project.  I can work at an icon for a bit, but too much investment is a waste of Life.  I am to cut off trying for perfection after some effort has been put into it.-Ernie Moore Jr.

“D,” turns into the dolphin diving.  The tail is wavy las the water.  My relating a dolphins relationship with water almost as though it’s an aspect of water.  Some of these begin to resemble established written characters.  I’m mostly noting Chinese and Russian.-Ernie Moore Jr.

This photodigital Image Capture revisits “a” and continues onto “B” as far as switch-out icons for the standard Letters of the English alphabet.-Ernie Moore Jr.

photodigital of notes for alphabet declintion AB Blue Bird E M J

This photodigital Image Capture is the top of page seven of my alphabet declination AB Blue Bird EMJ.  Here can be seen a declination from elaborate to minimal which like talking degrades-minimizing shortening-shaving; so goes writing. We’ve halted our writing by using type and machines to print.-Ernie Moore Jr.

Declination of this icon for “A” connects the ear to the eyelid. then loses the eyelid.  Then the connection straightens, then shortens.  Then there’s no connection and just the ear.  Then the ear shortens several times and loses the other side of the ear.-Ernie Moore Jr.

This shows me going on to “B,” dolphin leaping out of water.  Curves straighten.  The angle changes–becomes more acute.-Ernie Moore Jr.
