Fractal Art

Fractal art is computer generated art using mathamatical equations to get different looks. Thankfully, they have programs for people like me that math wasn't a good subject, and all we have to do is move triangles or push some buttons to get new and different looks.

Enjoy.

This one is called 'Stones Emergence'.

'Psychadelic, Man'

'Moon Rose'

I have others, but they will have to wait until I remember how to change a few things on them.
The program used on these is called IFTP. So far, it's not been seen again anywhere on the internet. It is a program that was created for handicapped people as a therapy tool. I=International F=Fractal T=Therapy P=Program.

Re: Fractal Art

Those are beautiful!

I really like "Stones Emergence," because generally, when I see fractal art, it's very symetrical, or has repeating patterns. "Stones Emergence" has patterns in it, but over all it seems to have a more natural, chaotic quality - sort of like order in chaos - which is really appealing. It just "feels" right, like nature.

And the one titled "Moon Rose" is absolutely gorgeous! It has such depth and clarity!

I used to have a fractal program that I played around with, but it never produced anything like those. Don't loose that program! You use it so well...

Re: Fractal Art

Thank you so much for the compliment, Corbin!! I love doing fractal art as long as the program doesn't confuse the wits out of me..lol.
I have created 3 new pieces in the last few days. This first one you have to REALLY have an imagination for.


'Hen and Chick'
Image


'Fern Coral' (Is there such a thing???)
Image


'Fantasy Wings' (Dragon Wings, perhaps?)

Re: Fractal Art

LOL - yup, the "Hen and Chick" I didn't get at first, but since you told me to exercise my imagiantion, I looked at it again and then BAM! there it was emoticon . Thjey look like they are made out of crystals...

The "fern Coral" amazes me. It looks too much like a fern to be produced by a mathamatical program... but there it is. Very Nice!

"Fantasy Wings" is beautiful as well - it's like the wings of an animal (maybe a dragon?) in flight. Very nice color choices there, by the way.

That's actually what I thought when I first saw the picture - I thought it was like my stone photographs and was just a close up of some crystal formation!

Great work Saijen.

Re: Fractal Art

Thank you, Texas! I'm just glad I found the program again and am back to making MY kind of art. I have really missed creating the fractals.

Corbin, thank you! I work and work at getting color combinations that I think look nice for the piece. Sometimes, that takes longer than creating the piece...lol.
I was so pleased when I got the fern look that I almost did the happy dance in my chair. When I had this program before, I never got this kind of result, no matter how hard I tried. Now, it just seems to come to me without a struggle.
The wings, with the colors, dragon was the only animal I could attach to them.

I need to get busy and get some more done.

Thanks y'all for the comments and compliments emoticon

I see the idea of dragon wings, but to me that one screams seriphem...

Re: Fractal Art

Now that you mention it, DebbrahF, it reminds me of one of Madeleine L'Engle's books - there was a seriphim that was all wings and eyes and swirls... a more accurate description, if I remember correctly, than the little baby faced angels you usually see.

Re: Fractal Art

You're welcome... I also read L'Engles books, so I'm pretty sure that is why I remember that is what they are traditionally supposed to look like.

And De Cobin, feel free to drop the F. I added it because someone beat me to Debbrah.
