Artist's Comments

Another of my new bunch of bilaterals-using-tweaked-spiralize, and all that fun stuff.

This I touched up a little in Photoshop--a little coloring, some subtle layer-with-Gaussian-Blur stuff, and sizing down.

Once again, a close inspection turned up zero jaggies. I'd rendered at 3000, sized it down to 2500, THEN I cropped. Turned out nice, it seems. :nod:

Now...if I could've thought up a name that involved flowers, flame, energy, and spiritual stuff, I'd have put it in there. All my poor brain could come up with after waiting for this thing to render (I had it pretty zoomed in to catch this central element that you see here) was "sacred flame." I went through what felt like a BAZILLION gradients. First it was fire colors, then it was like "nooo, try the New Age thing again" then it was "well how about floral?" Then I finally landed on this one, which seemed to encompass most of what I needed, without taking away from it. Or so I think.... :paranoid:

Well, whatever. Enjoy. Apophysis 2.02h, with some postwork in Photoshop, including that crop.

I love the prismatic look of this piece. I think the blur works very nice and all-in-all, this looks awesome:)

Years are like fractals. The more you've seen of them, the more you appreciate the details of each one, rather than how many you've seen.

Thanks for commenting! I'm a sucker for prismatic looking stuff--always have been. Somehow it'd figure that I'd use the prismatic looking gradients. :XD:

I'm glad you like it so much.

Reminds me of a light bulb, which isn't a bad thing. I think "filament" when I see the curl near the bottom. It looks neat -- neon wiring. :) Sweet colors!

92% of teens have moved on to rap. If you are part of the 8% who still listen to real music, copy and paste this into your signature.

One of the very early mutations of this when I was tinkering around with its look, resembled a lightbulb filament a lot more closely than the end result. You know those candle-shaped bulbs? Yeah. One of those.

I find it oddly fitting that you mentioned this now. :D

Glad you liked the colors. Thanks.
