Description
Ultrafractal 4.03 -- more UF/PS/PSP combo texturing...
A little stepping back from my recent obsession with 3d Spheres scenes while I wait for further inspiration on the third one I was doing. Back to the sorta cubist-impressionist "geofractal" "fract-stracts" I was working on prior to being grabbed by the short hairs by Mihai's 3d Spheres - lol. This one is a take-off on my earlier "Vacation Plans" - which was a further exploration of the the IFS-Barnsley+Jock III formula (jock.ufm) that grew from the "Venezia", "Sunshine Skyway" and "South Beach" ones I did a while back in my gallery. Cool how you can go back and tweak your previous stuff and sometimes come up with lots of different variations. Still can't come up with the sheer artistry of Joe Presley's (joefraq) IFS Barney stuff, but maybe if I'd quit dorking with this same location...:-)
I called this one "Homework---" because of the things my weird mind sees in it. There's Junior (or Elroy Jetson? maybe a sorta anime' Speed Racer?) in a baseball cap with a long pen doing homework while outside the "window" the sun is shining. I played with the idea of enhancing the "sunglasses" on the ball of the sun by adding eyeglass frames but wimped out. I tried to give the vibe of a "tree trunk" and green "tree" behind the sun but I'm not sure that will register with "normal" people like y'all - lol. Amazing how many layers (68) something seemingly "simple" like this image can take when you start saying, "this little square should be blue" and you end up with - really! - 6 or 8 masks hanging off some of the layers.
Thanks for stopping by....and don't give the teacher that lame line about how "the dog ate your essay". lol
Rick :-)

Beautiful is a weak word!!! Fantabulous is slightly better :) Thanks for sharing, Rick.
Super, really wonderful.
This line of work is excellent, your handling of the colours and composition is perfect!
This is a real beauty, a real pleasure to view :-)
Excellent work, Rick!
Wonderful and fantastic abstraction my friend....!!! Beautiful colors and creative shapes too....!!!
Magnificent, Rick. Really like this one a lot.
Awesome work Rick.
Wonderful modernistic image! It's a wall hanger! Excellent work! (:
Excellent! Looks more like a painting than a fractal.
This is Exellent work.
With all the texturing this has, I'm sure that rendering it would flatten so much of it that it would not work nearly as well. In other words, the textures rock!! :)
EXCELLENT WORK!!!!!!
Excellent design artwork!
