Title: Finally; abstract fractal art! Post by: AbstractVisionaryArt on May 15, 2014, 04:19:36 PM I've created what I believe to be a new style of art, a fusion of fractal art, abstract minimalism, op-art, and visionary art. I call it abstract visionary art (I initially went with Metaphysical Mandalas, but many people probably don't know the meaning of at least one of those words). They are made using a digital technique analogous to screen printing. I look forward to sharing my art with you all!

Title: Re: Finally; abstract fractal art! Post by: AbstractVisionaryArt on May 16, 2014, 05:39:02 PM Here are a few. Each one has an associated quote:
'Whorl' How can we satisfy ourselves without going on in infinitum? And, after all, what satisfaction is there in that infinite progression? Let us remember the story of the Indian philosopher and his elephant. It was never more applicable than to the present subject. If the material world rests upon a similar ideal world, this ideal world must rest upon some other; and so on, without end. It were better, therefore, never to look beyond the present material world. David Hume (http://37.media.tumblr.com/0aa5d60852ca622a38322acf64b20947/tumblr_n5i9anNI261ta8x9ao1_1280.png) 'Reciprocity' This is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth: As below, so above; and as above, so below. With this knowledge alone you may work miracles. And since all things exist in and eminate from the ONE Who is the ultimate Cause, so all things are born after their kind from this ONE. Hermes Trismegistus (http://24.media.tumblr.com/7c12c9a7b091023e2280e3b4b4bc66de/tumblr_n5n58fH7rt1ta8x9ao1_1280.png) 'Eternal Return' Time is infinite, but the things in time, the concrete bodies, are finite. They may indeed disperse into the smallest particles; but these particles, the atoms, have their determinate numbers, and the numbers of the configurations which, all of themselves, are formed out of them is also determinate. Now, however long a time may pass, according to the eternal laws governing the combinations of this eternal play of repetition, all configurations which have previously existed on this earth must yet meet, attract, repulse, kiss, and corrupt each other again.

Post by: youhn on May 16, 2014, 05:48:56 PM That last one I like. Has a bit more complexity and various ways to see patterns/symmetry.

The art you make is very nice indeed, it reminds me a bit at the pop-art style in the sixties. Will check out your website for more. Have a good day. Grtz Caleidoscope |
