Anyone else have framed fractals (or other art) created by themselves?

thats great!  i got one giclee print done last year just to test the waters and see how it turns out, and it is super awesome!  whenever i think about getting more prints i think to myself, just put it off a little while im sure there must be some way i can improve my coloring algorithms first, but that thought never goes away.  just need to pull the trigger on a few prints once in a while anyway i guess.  the one that i did was this one and the print looks pretty good

That's pretty neat. Here's a likely candidate if I ever get another one done, but I would probably need to reframe it in Mandel Machine at a 3x2 aspect and massive resolution. I zoom deep into the Seahorse "Ravine" at approximately -0.75+.001i

I haven't done enough stills featuring shallow zooms with ornate minibrots. Fractal Extreme is good, but you get pallet bands due to 8 bits of color. A 24-bit color mode with smooth iteration bands would have gone a long way. All three of those square pictures were rendered in FX. Magnum Opus Ex took like a month! :o

Giclee prints really seem to pop even with saturated colors that far exceed the color gamut of traditional printers.

not framed and no special prints, but they found their way into some rooms here

I framed the first fractals in the 80s... A very different world then when NTSC/PAL resolution was normal and HD in the future. Now I'm handling 32K masters for 4K to 16K deliverables of locations that would have taken months/years in the 80s.  :crazyeyes:

Of course, I have a framed printout from 2003 in my living room, right above the sofa.

Sort of.  Attached is my splashback (behind glass) at the back of my hob in the kitchen.

I plan to print some different ones as we've just changed the colour scheme of the decor in that room.

It's kinda hard to tell from the photo, but I got this one printed on metal. It's expensive to do, but the colors come out super bright and crisp.

Mandelbrot forehead is a bit creepy looking but otherwise awesome! O0

thanks! Yeah I exaggerated the size of his forehead on purpose when I painted it... maybe it's too much... but the idea was that it's room for all his extra brains because he's so smart!

Is that supposed to be a young Beniot Mandelbrot? He's always been an old man in photos and interviews discussing the fractal set. Brilliant man. God rest his soul.

I must admit though, you got the look and feel of dendrites in the colored bands. What media did you use for the paint?

I have not framed any of the new stuff yet but some will be framed and displayed at a "public place" starting next month.
