Title: Hello from New Hampshire
Post by: tfloraditch on November 08, 2011, 03:05:33 PM
I am a landscape painter that discovered fractals researching the patterns light makes coming through the trees.  I knew it wasn't random I just didn't understand the math behind it.  I am just starting to learn about fractals and very excited about it.  I get a lot of odd looks from friends. :0)  If anyone has specific information about applying and interpreting fractal patterns in the existing landscape I would like to hear from you.

Welcome to Fractal Forums, Timothy! The landscape paintings on your website (http://www.tfloraditch.com) are wonderful.

Perhaps you'll get ideas for your paintings by understanding the mathematical construction of some simple fractals. As a start, you might take a look at Wikipedia's article on the Pythagoras tree (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagoras_tree_%28fractal%29).

I hope you'll find that these forums have a lot to offer you.
