Description The first of three fractals postworked in Photoshop and Painter 8.

The background layer is 100% fractal, created in UF. The upper layer is 100% digitally hand-drawn and coloured, with the addition of a filter effect.

My idea was to create lively, colourful images with a certain naΓ―ve air to them. The drawn part is certainly not perfect, it only meant to be cheerful and evocative. These are decorative images, not "serious" works of art -though I wouldn't know where exactly to set the boundaries

The titles also agree with my "naΓ―ve" intention, no playing with words, no allusions. This is a tree with leaves. I hope you like it.

Sorry it took me so long to answer your comment, I only got back online today. Thank you, it's a lovely thing to say. You can always settle for a postcard you can hide in a drawer or, if you feel like it, I can post a "toned-down" version. Men can be exasperating, can't they?
