Description
Made with Ultrafractal 4.04
Here's one I thought might be nice to show. I tried for a sort of sandstone texture and it sort of suggests the shapes of palmetto or "sawgrass" as it's called here in Florida. I might try to make a decorative frame for it later if inspiration stikes as I'm not sure the line frame works all that well. Since the background color on my PC desktop is black, I had to do SOMETHING to get it to show up when I had it as wallpaper - lol
Thanks for stopping by, y'all!

Lovely Stuff Rick - reminds me some of your Piano keys piece... Has a kind of Art Deco Feel to it... Love them Textures ;) Like how you limited the palette too - looks like a fair amount of masking involved in that one..... Need to get a spare hour or so to check out the main gallery....

A striking image. I like the shapes and textures very much. It should take pride of place on any large blank wall.

Great texture and embossing effect!!

This is stunning, Rick. I'm amazed at how exciting the image is given what we usually think of as dullish colors. The brown in the upper right corner practically jumps off the screen. Your embossing is awesome. Diane

This is totally fantastic. Great astract and awesome enough to hang on the wall. I think the line frame fits well. Simple and sets the image off. Very well done!!

I opened your fractal image to the full sized window and I must say that this is a beautfully done image as well as texture. The texture has a sandy look to me. Well done, Rick!

This looks like sand painting. (Do I hear and echo??) I love the textures. I love the colors. I love the shapes. I love the framing. I love it. I just love it. (Did I say that already?)

man, this is soooo beautiful, I can see this hanging on somebody's wall. I realy like the way you're working in UF lately, It's still fractalwork and identifiable as such, but it somehow crossed a line where the mere fact that it IS a fractal, is no longer the essence. As far as I'm concerned, we're talking art here, where the medium is just a coincidence, a matter of choice. Topstuff, Rick!!!

A most interesting and attractive image , Rick - great textures and subtle shades of grey !
whirlingfeather
Wow Rick, this is sooo cool! I like the texture and the colors really work to make this look sand-painted. Well done my friend!
