[SYMBOLS BOOK of/by A D Van der Vliet Left Hand. This 1994-11-14.]

This Title Page added in 1994, which was the time when the first book was being assembled with the earlier drawn images which all are dated, with a few exceptions. 

Entry Two: 'The Miz' link-trial

[91-10-16 Lefthand Drawn & written ADV]

Comment:
This is the first left hand drawing made and is a single page:
At the time I started my left hand work, 1991-10, its purpose was to lend expression using crayons and construction paper of what ever came to me as an inspiration.

Note the asterisk (*) indicating the arm of the guide.

I DRINK TO MY COMPANION & GUIDE 91-10-17 Left Hand ADV *!?]

Comment:
The illegible sign in the right hand bottom corner (shown as *!?) I make out to be an attempt to get the notion of 'left' indicated. This I found not satisfactory and added a clearer 'Left Hand' above my initials ADV.

Entry Four: Dream Interpretation

This is the front page of seven pages of written text that will be made available seperately later.
 

Entry Five: Split Heart Image

[91-10-18   A.D.V.
FREE DRAWINg   Left hand. {The text in red intermingles with the white and black coloured text as follows:
The red text:} The   shape that Heals the SPLIT.
{The bl & wt text:} The conscious.]

Comment:
This can be read as: 'The conscious shape that heals the split', where that conscious shape it the conscious heart.
However, I can also read it as follows: 'The conscious heart-as-shape=word the shape that heals the split.' This way the image of the heart is read as the word for its drawn shape, intermingling image and text like a re-bus puzzle. This latter interpretation is the one I recall to be the right one.

Entry Six: Split Heart Text

Comment:
This text is an interpretation of the 'split heart' image of the previous entry all of the same date. Its texed will be scanned at least and mabe rewritten. This is to come later.
