I am a Kiwi artist from Aotearoa New Zealand. I make beautiful fractals BIO There is really not a lot to say. I specialise in representational fractal art, including portraits of people which I make for individuals. There is also a liberal scattering of abstract work. Much of my work looks very 'unfractal like', and much is in fact, indistinguishable from other artforms displayed
Â
But make no mistake. Digitalk ar, and fractal art in particular is Fine Art.Â
Â
My experiences with prissy gallery owners, agents, and other hangers on, has been abrasive to say the least. If you stick on a bit of wool with super glue, that makes it mixed media--which is acceptable; if you stick a photo in somewhere, that's also acceptable...as photograqphy. GRRRRRR
Â
I have several times been invited to contribute works for gallery shows. There were three invitations: The first two were withdrawn when they found out I was a digital artist. The third didn't bother to reply to my6 emails telling them what kind of art i do.
Then there was the locally sponsered art show. They accepted my entry fee then 'forgot' to hang the works.
Â
So What I do Is FINE ART. OK??

Votre fractale représente assez bien les ondes de chocs qui se propagent sur l'écorce terrestre dans votre région du Pacifique. Vous semblez assister aux chocs des Titans de la Mythologie ! Comment pouvoir résister psychiquement à cette succession "programmée" d'nfluences guerrières de la tectonique des plaques ! La Nouvelle-Zélande est isolée géographiquement. Son plus proche voisin, l'Australie, est situé à 2 000 km au nord-ouest. Les terres les plus proches sont le continent Antarctique au sud, et la Nouvelle-Calédonie, les îles Fidji et les îles Tonga au nord. Elle fait partie d'un continent appelé Zealandia, à 93 % submergé. Zealandia fait presque la moitié de la taille de l'Australie et est remarquablement longue et étroite. Il y a environ 25 millions d'années, un changement dans les mouvements des plaques tectoniques ont commencé à étirer Zealandia avec force. Parmi les régions submergées de Zealandia, on trouve le plateau Lord Howe, le plateau Challenger, le plateau de Campbell, la ride de Norfolk et le plateau de Chatham. Your fractal represents quite well the shock waves that spread over the crust in your region of the Pacific. You seem to attend the shocks of Mythology Titans! How to mentally withstand this succession "programmed" to NFLUENCE warrior plate tectonics! New Zealand is geographically isolated. His nearest neighbor, Australia, is located 2000 km north-west. The nearest land is the Antarctic continent to the south, and New Caledonia, Fiji and Tonga to the north. It is part of a continent called Zealandia, 93% submerged. Zealandia is almost half the size of Australia and is remarkably long and narrow. There are about 25 million years, a change in the movements of tectonic plates began to stretch Zealandia forcefully. Among the submerged regions of Zealandia, we find the Lord Howe Plateau, the plateau Challenger, Campbell Plateau, Norfolk Ridge and the plateau of Chatham.

You lace curtain is very nice and soft. Could it alleviate the pain. When hopes and dreams are disturbed, which is like a spiritual terror attack. It hurts in a profound way. It is sad to read what has already happened in Christchurch. Love to you and yours, dear Merren.

Stunning fractal, superb work. I know NZ is in a very seismically unstable area along the Pacific Ring of Fire and it's turbulence has been peaking in the last few years. The thing I wonder about is all the Cycles peaking at the same time, Volcanic/Seismic, Atmospheric/Weather, Solar/Universal...all peaking at the same time, maybe those are not After Shocks but Precursors of a Global scale onslaught, 2012 is approaching fast. Peace

Magnificent fractal work. I am very sorry to hear about the ongoing aftershocks. The New Zealanders i know are a very hardy bunch and capable of most anything they set thier minds to, but at the same time i also know the devastation that such a prolonged and continual feeling of insecurity and not having any ability to control the situation takes a strong emotional toll on even the strongest of psyches. We will be thinking of you and your fellow countrymen (and women). The fact no one has been killed is the best news there is out of all this mess. Buildings can always be replaced but people cant be.

Wonderful fractal. Hope that the aftershocks end soon for you folks. I'm happy that no one has died...

A wonderful fractal with a very lacy feel to it. The quakes were a blow but they are a hardy bunch up there and they will pick up and start again. My friends are very philosophical about it but are hurting all the same.

Beautiful work!Very creative!

Oh, Merr... Terrible news. I am so, so sorry for all of them. Yes, it Is quite a beautiful fractal though. Very glad that You are safe.

Such sad news about the shocks. I hope you are not too near to the devastation. Best wishes :)

Dear Merren, This is a very beautiful FE. Not only about the earthquake, but I am also very sorry to hear about the pain in your lungs. Perhaps this fractals symbolizes this pain. I hope you will recover soon.

Hi...thanks for your visit to my gallery. I hadn't seen yours before, and don't have time to look right now, but I will be back to visit. This is a splendid image. Ghostly and delicate and beautiful. As for a grand tour of Swoopy Pipeworld. You should download Mandelbulb 3D, it's free at FractalForums. Just copy and paste the parameters...it's a blast. Losts of good tutorials at Deviant Art.
