Words cannot quite describe this fractal piece, which is abstract, yet seemingly (and sensually) familiar. As any of my regular readers will know, it isn't too hard for me to find fractals which subtly imitate natural forms. Still, it was quite a surprise to find these anthropomorphic forms lurking in the set. The flesh-like curves appeared as I was feeling around a vortex Julia set, using 3D fractal Brownian motion as a coloring formula. Originally, I was trying to find something that looked like a feather or a leaf. (When I first saw the body, I had it colored green. Talk about abstract.) Should I have been that surprised? The curves of human flesh are as natural as the colorful plumage of a bird, the intricate patterns on the surface of a leaf, or waves on the ocean.

And what a session it was. Really positive response, you helped a lot of people out, and you have a good seminar presence. Was that really your first? Thanks again Ron!
