I have started adding acrylic transfer of laserjet printed fractals, some details of well known formulas, and some, formulas I derived myself. I'm using Xaos on the Mac for this. I was surprised at how well these integrate into painterly, "messy" painting.
Here's a few base fractal images as they look when they are printed out:
Here's some images of some recent process images, followed by some more or less finished works.
Lots of fractal and other images, paper, painters tape and canvases. |
Here we see laying out a composite of many different images (10 or 20!), taped together on the back and ready to transfer |
Time to open my present! Gel is dry, removing paper... |
Repainted the curve in the upper left a dozen times. It's so very close to the edge it has incredible tension, and it was very hard to get it right. |
Even Though You Listen to the Dark Music The entire top part was completely redone. I painted over it with zinc white, so that it would show through more. Added the bold form at top. I love it like this. |
For some reason, I had to title this Queen Jane Something royal and fabulous? |
A Lad in His Lamp (not sure if this one is finished) |
