Found, photographed & curated letterforms.

Inspired by the arrival of 'swine flu'. Hand-drawn, then coloured on the computer.

Screens and results from the dynamically generating app. Letters chosen by the user grow arcs and circles.

Drawing inspiration from my environment, I decided to explore creating letterforms using this theme. Presented above is the picture "H', of said experimentation with forming a cohesive alphabet.

I realized my error and then corrected this in the second shots.
