Auratum by *trystianity is amazingly intricate. The vivid bright colors draw you in, and the details keep your hanging on.

Description

fractals + painting + camera + scanner + way too much time :|

Finally finished. I had an idea and started working on this last year. I love abstract/conceptual work with 3D renders so I thought, why not do it with a fractal render? I made the main fractal (flowers) but my mom saw it and wanted it on her wedding invitations. I was really hesitant because this piece is how I saw them in my head. I agreed to use the render for her invitations, and was going to just abandon this piece forever but the idea wouldn't allow itself be killed so easily. I had a very specific image in my mind and had to learn all of the skills I needed to be able to see it on screen. I thought my mom might be pissed at me for vandalizing her invitation design, but luckily she likes it and I'll live to paint another day.
