I wanted to do a 3D version of Circular Reasoning, illustrating Infinity. Instead of atoms circling in outer space, they spin into the distance of an alien water-world.

I had a bad accident while doing some tie-dying …
Actually just the result of playing around with one Apophysis and two XaoS fractals. It's probably better suited as a desktop background than a stand-alone piece of art. Except you may never find your icons again!

This picture developed like many of my abstracts, with a fractal design that I played with and manipulated until it didn't bear much resemblence to the original. It this case it was an orange and lavendar pattern that looked rather like a phoenix's wing.

For this piece I took the same ZaoS fractal I had embossed for Rubies & Gold and laid it over a green Apophysis fractal design. The result was a calmer image that reminded me of the light patterns - caustics - under rippling water. The pearl seemed an appropriate addition.

This ornate spiral pattern came from the XaoS fractal zooming program, and I added the gold overlay and rubies. How any gems do you think there are?

An attempt to illustrate Infinity. From atoms to galaxies (actually fractals, but they can pass for galaxies), plus some circles and rings. The fractals were made in Apophysis, the rest I made and put together in Paint Shop Pro.

This was the result of playing with golden spirals. And the dark greens and blues, plus a little hint of purple, look like something under deep waters.

It's easy to see the repeating fractal pattern in this design. However close you look you'll still see the same swirls getting smaller and branching off each other, like a whole tribe of Oriental dragons, or a huge super-storm containing countless smaller storms. That makes this a pretty versatile design for lots of different screen sizes or print contexts.
