Well...maybe this one is a bit weird, even for me - lol. My other idea for a title was "The Torch Singer". Found this fractal "face" while messing around with the "Chai" formula (don't remember who wrote it - I'm at work right now) and it gave me an excuse to figure out how to make a "passable I guess" undulating piano keyboard ala Joe Presley's XD ones to, along with the background "flames" reinforce the "hot jazz" or "smokin' blues" vibe. Been working on this for 4 days straight
Anyhow - what do y'all think about the color scheme? I've gotten a set of pro acrylic paints and a few canvases to try my hand and so have been immersing myself in a lot of boldly colored art and kinda went for that on this one. Still not sure but maybe it's ok?
Thanks for stopping in to see "Billie" :-)

EDIT - 3-2-08 - Woohoo! Just checked the list of winners in the '08 MOCA digi-art contest and seems this bluesy lady got herself an Honorable Mention! Too cool!

Nice work!
Excellent work and great colors. One remark, 'Lady sings the blues' isn't connected to Ella, nor Aretha, but to Billie Holiday.
Wonderful and spectacular abstraction my friend.....!!!!
whoever she may be, I Loooove her lips!
Truely fabulous ART work, Rick! A very powerful musical creation.
Lovely 'n' excellent work! (:
Move over, Picasso! Rick, this is incredible. I love the colors, I love the twisting keyboard, the eyelashes (nice touch, the pearls. Everything adds up to more than the sum of the parts :)
Impresssive - very fluid (as you would expect from a true jazz singer)!
excellent fractal artwork. bravo!
My first thought was Billie Holiday...Superb work Rykk. Everything about the piece really fits the title.
I love it. Truely getting to the fractal-as-artist's-brush level. Although I can see the hot nightclub feel, I would have probably used more blues, in honor of the cool jazz and blues era, which is my favorite.
picasso would clap !! :)
Congratulations! This image has been chosen for the Fractal Window Weekly in the Fractal SubCommunity. You will find the announcement in the Fractal Forum.
A fantastic image which captures to essence of the torch singing era. This image could easily be a poster from that era in Jazz or a cover for an appropriate sheet music book. Bravo!
