Each letter is a simple but gorgeous illustration that still looks great next to a thousand more. That&#8217;s not even the best part. The best part is that people can manipulate and draw each letter and word so differently and yet they&#8217;re readable. Imagine the word &#8220;word&#8221; in Univers, Georgia, Papyrus, or handwriting. Each letter form is soooo different but you can still read it (more or less). I just love it.<\/p>\n<p>So when I saw the typographer, <a title=\"Jessica Hische\" href=\"http:\/\/jessicahische.com\/typographizes\/an-illustrative-initial-every-day\" target=\"_blank\">Jessica Hische<\/a>, create unique drop caps for her &#8220;design of the day,&#8221; it inspired me. It motivated me to create this blog and more specifically motivated me to make today&#8217;s design. Today I made my own drop cap in <a title=\"Tribute\" href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pcJwz7wu8_s\" target=\"_blank\">tribute<\/a> to her. So thank you Jessica Hische and I hope you can come up with even more typefaces and drop caps in your future.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-42\" title=\"A Drop Cap\" src=\"http:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/A_dropcap1.gif\" alt=\"drop cap of the letter A\" width=\"580\" height=\"478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/A_dropcap1.gif 580w, https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/A_dropcap1-300x247.gif 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I made a tribute to the great Jessica Hische. <a href=\"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/not-so-scarlett-letter\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[29,20,21],"class_list":["post-39","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-typography","tag-drop-cap","tag-jessica-hische","tag-tenacious-d"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":148,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39\/revisions\/148"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=39"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
