i LOVE coloring outside the box, as long as it's my box
i learned using UltraFractal, most of my images are still done with it.. because, well, it's the one i understand the best... and the only one i know how to write formulas for.. i use many others, but learning is an often frustrating process.. and i just hate being frustrated *smile* BIOit came to me at about 3am one morning that, while my tools of choice are fractal programs, i'm not a very good "fractalist". i don't try to be... there are many, many fractalists out there with amazing skill who can do wonderful things with fractals.. i just don't have that vision.. i envy those that do.. a well cared for mandelbrot, nurtured and lovingly tended to, can be an elegant, graceful, thing of beauty...
with few exceptions, a pennylane mandelbrot is about the most boring thing you might find on R'osity *laughing*
so where am i going with this (i ask myself) hell, i don't know, my fingers are doing the typing, i'm just waiting to see what they come up with next.. *smile*
if there's a fringe category of fractals, i figure that's where i'm at... i tend not to care about the fractal itself, the repetition that defines... not to say that i don't use that repetition often... it's a flow thing... i think.. yeah... maybe that's what i'm trying to say... the images kansas says have rhythym, and the images FractalGrrl calls liquid.. those are the ones that flow the best... the ones that i'm most happy with.. well, those and the ones that get done while i'm exploring my own personal lunatic fringe... *laughing*
oh yeah, and another thing, don't read this... it's all a bunch of rambling babble that means nothing

{{{{{{{{{{{{{RussaLyn}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} I am sitting here, choked up. What a breathtaking image, and what a beautiful, moving message. You are not only an extraordinarily talented woman, but your heart is as big as the sky. Thank you. :)

This is so beautiful! A good take on Mindy's style, but still your own panache! Lovely!

Wow! Stunning and complex floral image with that typical pennylane sense of movement and coolness. Excellent image and a wonderfully thoughtful gesture, as well. One of your best, IMO.

I really like this one. The thumbnail picture doesn't do it justice. It really has a the feel of a hot house full of tropical plants. :)

A very beautiful image you made for Mindy.

Absolutely striking image. I agree with DawnStar. The thumbnail doesn't do this justice. I wanted to see it up close, because I am familiar with your work, and I am so glad I did, and I was so right in doing so. Thank you! Wonderful thought for Mindy, and a graceful and beautiful image.
