Description
This image won FIRST PLACE in the annual 2006 International Digital Art Contest - the "Donnie" award - at the Museum of Computer Art in Brooklyn, New York City - an online and also real brick and mortar gallery. I'm really excited about it and I think/hope it shows the beginnings of more acceptance of fractal art in more "mainstream" circles. The art and theater stage doesn't get much bigger than in the Big Apple - We're getting there!Thanks for dropping in!

Thanks, Linda! It was was such a neat surprise and, since I almost think of these images as my "kids", I'm really happy for this one. Does that seem weird? lol BTW - do you think my cartoon-like post at Rendo was unseemly? I just thought it was such a funny thing and the resemblance to Marge Simpson grabbed me...

You're always most welcome, Rick. I love your work. Uh-oh, I haven't browsed the Rendo fractal gallery for a couple of days. I'll trip on over and take a look, but I'm sure if you created it, it won't be "unseemly."

I already congratulated you on the other site, I'm Redshift there, but I want to repeat it here: Congrats Rick, with what could be a major breakthrough for fractal art, which I surely hope will happen, because artists like you are deserve this recognition and our fractal art in itself deserves much more attention out there... So keep on inspiring the rest of us with your marvelous ART!

where's the plane? 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
LOL - It's original name was "Prehistoric". When I posted it elsewhere under that name, a lot of people saw a crashed plane. So I figured I was just weird seeing the prehistoric terrain and gave it this name when I posted it here. It's working name was "Bedrock" because of the prehistoric vibe and Hurricane Wilma was lashing my house as I made it. Get it ? Flintstones.....Fred.....Wilma..... - ok maybe I AM nutz! lol

I see your landscape and I like the tones you've used to capture it. The sprinkle of green leafy vines is a great touch. This one is a fav for me

I didn't see a crashed plane...til I read it.
Amazing piece, as usual! You certainly know how to make a fractal NOT look like a fractal.

I would love to know your secret! At one point I'm looking at an artistic wonder and on the other hand I'm looking at a mathmatic WIZ.
