Description
Ultrafractal 3.02 -- Apophysis 2 beta17
Here's an abstract composition with a "story" that I've had for a while and I think I've taken it as far as it will go so I thought I'd share it.
The three bowing, vaguely nude human forms represent Adam, Eve and the evil one (or Lillith if that is your belief) being driven from Eden by an angry God, represented by the form in the upper left whose shape/movement bears down on the three figures cringing from its wrath. At least that's the the intent - maybe y'all see something else or did I convey the theme ok? The "tree" is a mix of "esa.ucl - ESA Fractal Tree" and Apophysis layers.
It occurs to me that all creativity and knowledge originates with God and we who express that creativity thru art, especially abstract, are VERY fortunate that HE has chosen us to be conduits, however imperfect, for His boundless imagination....
Thanks for stopping by!

Too true Rick! I see all you say. The three figures are forming their own despatch with thunder and forked lightning. All the anger, frustrations and shame are shown in the turmoil. Stunning image.

An interesting overlay of fractals and a great story of the struggle for power. However,I don't think one can specify which art style is the best to express our glory of the great creator. I believe there is art in most any form of creation, thats why we are all different and beautiful in our own way. Your style shows your image of what is glorious in god and others might have another way to show the same view. Excellent design and I do so love to see how other programs work into a design. Well done post !!~*****~!!

Rick, again art at its best. Gorgeous textures and shapes and a well explaining background 'story' leading the viewer to understand your motivation. V

Very strong and also very beautiful .It
s the colors that add to the drama of the image . The story of Adam and Eves expulsion from the Garden of Eden is realy the story of the evolution of man . It`s amazing that almost everything we know can be found in fractals the sacred as well as the profane .Vmountmous

Worth a good long look. Great theme and image. It makes me think about the differences between God, Satan and us. The colors say that we are similar, the shapes say that we are different.
CarolSassy
I agree. It's a gift! This is a fantastic composition. The textures 'n' forms work for me. Great abstract! V (:

Great story! Superb rendering! Glad to see your knowledge & creativity are as prolific as ever my friend! If Adam & Eve had never eaten the forbidden fruit, God would be the only artist in town! :)

God's wrath seems to be emanating in waves and the figure look both human and serpentine to me. It is like they have incorporated the evilness of the serpent into their beings. Very cool work.

absolutely jawdropping beautiful and the story made me believe that you are a deeply religeous person with a fear of God's wrath. There is a lot of emotions, don't want to say anger, oozing from this image..
