Fractal Art is  expressive & creative.
Above all Fractal Art is an experimental art form.
The artist is never fully certain what effect variables will have on the image.
This fact connects, rather than separates, the digital fractal artist with the traditional paint artists.
The chaos that occurs when a painter touches the canvas with the brush can never be fully controlled.
Indeed, most accepted masters of the painterly arts find methods to guide this fractal force,
as a horseman can never possess the power of the horse but only direct it to some degree.
When working with only a fractal program, with no other graphic manipulation used,
the image dictates to the artist what direction to proceed, and not vice versa,
as with traditional drawing or painting techniques.
The dedicated fractal artist spends hours making small changes to various parameters,
looking for just the right effect or color scheme.

"Pearls are Women´s best Friends"

"What is it about Pearls that makes them so mysterious? So exotic?
Pesonally I think it is because they are adornments that are made by the sea...
They are not hard, cold gemstones that have been crushed by the earth for millions of years;
they have been nestled in the soft warmth of an oyster, surrounded by salty and sandy waters.
Diamonds say, "See me sparkle! Look at me I am beautiful."
Pearls say, "I am mysterious, so come closer and figure out why.
I do not flash, there is more to me."
When thinking of pearls, most have visions of the "string of pearls"
a young girl gets as she sets off to university or is given for her wedding day.
Signifying purity and even perhaps virginity.
But the Pearl laughs at this.
Its demure, gossimer glow tells another story all together.
Have you seen pearls in candlelight?
Pearls have remained quiet and relatively uninvasive over time,
but take another glance at history to see the most seduct
