I'm not much into art, but I've found myself enjoying stuff like Jackson Pollock and other similar artists (Abstract Expressionist? Not really sure what exactly it is). I love looking at it and thinking about my first impression, and then thinking about what concept or message the artist might have been expressing. It's fun to try to make more out of what's there than what's actually there, I think. And maybe I only think of it that way because of the label people give it, and if it wasn't famous art, I wouldn't find it as appealing? I don't know. But I enjoy it more than landscapes/portraits/photography/etc. Aside from that, fractal art is really pretty in its own way. It's not nearly as though provoking, but it has its own charm.
Pollock is pretty incredible. I wonder how much of his works are made meticulously finely crafting each line of color, and how much are truly random drips of paint. Either way, his works somehow come together to give off powerful emotions. I agree that it's fun to overanalyze! Fractal art is so unique, and I love that it has roots in mathematics. It's almost as if it is designed to appease the eye... Thanks for the share!
Yeah.. here is an album of JWildfire fractal flame renders that I came up with one day. I haven't messed with it much lately, but they're unique in their own way. I suppose with some of those, you can sort of do the same sort of thing - they're not meant to be anything in particular but they still evoke feelings of their own and are open to interpretation. Some of these remind me of galaxies/star systems, towns (futuristic and not), etc.
