Description


Ultrafractal 4.02 - Photoshop 7 Here's one with a little more color and a little more traditionally fractal. The next few I upload (unless the groove happens and pulls me off on a tangent - again! lol) will be fairly abstract. I'm trying to "disguise" some fractal images and make them look more like paintings. I'm thinking that maybe they might go over in the "mainstream" art world more if I can get a look like they are "hand-made"? Like many paintings, you need to stand back like 4-6ft away to get the full effect rather than looking way up close. This guy has a neat spiral that I found using Toby's "Painter's Trap" ucl during a 1-layer "challenge" in the Forum and just seemed to be dying to take a dip in the "lake". Spring's comin' and the water's getting warmer - woohoo! Thanks for stopping by and I hope y'all enjoy this one. Holler if you need a towel! lol Rick (Fine art giclee' prints of most of my work are available on archival paper or canvas - e-mail: drahcir3@hotmail.com and get busy filling that empty spot on the wall! :-)

I love the way you have used a textured 'paper' background. I will have to try this... Lovely work. Roz

Hey Rick, good to see an image from you... yes, this does have a more painterly feel to it. The "canvas" helped a lot with that... I adore these soft colors and your textures. Very nicely done!

This is like watercolour on canvas. The shape was familiar too having seen it in the one-layer challenge. You're right about trying to create more fractal images that appear to be created by hand. I think this appeals to the general public more and I couldn't argue that this image would look great anywhere. You've certainly achieved your goal with this one and I'm really looking forward the next few you upload. This one is beautiful, I love the colours, the water, shape and background. Very well done.

Mit Schwanengesang hast du wieder ein kleines Kunstwerk geschaffen mein Freund. !!!!!!!

IMO the strong texture takes away a bit from the charming beauty of the spiral.

Lovely, graceful lines and elegant coloring! The texturing is very good, but maybe just a little strong for the delicate image. Absolutely gorgeous swan :)

I really like this but I would just rather you'd created it because it's beautiful and not to try and fit into the mainstream. Fractals are a genre in their own right - they don't need to look like they've been done by hand - if you want to do that, go get a paintbrush!
