I'm pleased to bring you the stunning fractal artwork of Dawn Edwards today. Dawn's medium is pixels on the computer and the way she colors and manipulates them into art is beautiful. These days most people have seen fractal artwork of some sort. I've seen a lot of it and it never honestly impressed me all that much. I think one thing that underimpressed me is that so many fractal artists seem to use bright primary colors in their work. I'm not personally attracted to such colors but more importantly, what you see in nature are more frequently muted and subtly shaded colors. Since fractals use patterns and mathematical forumulas found in nature to create their magic I prefer fractal art rendered in natural and organic colors. Dawn is skilled at using tones and shades of colors which sometimes makes her work look like it could be an organic life form as yet undiscovered on earth.The amazing thing to me is that Dawn is self-taught. But she's been working with fractals for over 5 years, refining her technique and learning as she goes. And she surely has a natural talent for what she does. But enough talk...check out some of my favorite pieces of Dawn's fractal artwork. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() CLICK PHOTOS FOR LARGER VIEWIf you'd like to visit Dawn's site you can find her fractal artwork gallery here. When you visit her web site it isn't even immediately obvious that she sells her artwork. But, if you contact her, she's happy to arrange to have your favorite print(s) custom printed to your size specification and mailed to you. I won't quote her prices here as they may change but I was amazed at how reasonable her prices are for such high quality prints. |
