I am an environmental scientist. A large part of my career has been dedicated to scientific research into the structure of ecosystems and factors that affect them. Quite early on, it became apparent that certain mathematical iterative principles formed geometries that coincided exactly with those found in natural ecosystems. And by ecosystems, I do not mean just plants and animals. The same principles also apply to quantum physics, geology, meteorology and on up to the formation of galaxies. These relationships were championed most publicly by the brilliant mathematician Benoît Mandelbrot, the founder of fractal geometry.
To my mind, the structure of natural ecosystems through application of these iterative processes revealed not only the genius and subtlety of nature but also its incomparable beauty. Â

Beautiful work.

Magnificent flow to this Stan. The colors bring forth thoughts of spring. Something quite welcome on a day like today where the thermometer is down in the -30C range. I hope you have a great Sunday, and the weather is pleasant where you are.

Thanks for the flower. You are one of the most outstanding art creators and I admire all of your works. Your u-tube videos are super. This flower also reminds me of a ladyslipper another Spring blossum. I just have to agree with Jim it is extreamly cold here today and the thoughts of Spring are so welcomed.Wishing you a happy Sunday.

An air filled with Irises, the smell is everywhere, the colors radiate, it lifts up the minds of all who look, but don't know what they see. Because it is a flower, as is never seen, ever. Made by Stan: "Yes, we can" (LOL)
