Description A set of 30 Apophysis gradients created from the works of Queen of Colour, Amy Hooton (with the artist's permission, I should add!). Amy uses many palettes, most often with a signature style of restrained intensity, and the manner in which she runs the colours into each other makes the works particularly suited to creating gradients straight off, that is requiring no further work like adding a little blur or removing large patches of a single colour. Like their parent pictures after which each is named, these gradients are especially good for use with white backgrounds.

If you're not already familiar with Amy's work, go check it out now [link] If you are, here's your chance to bring those colours to bear in your own work!

Edit: at Amy's request, please link anything you create in a note to her as she'd really like to see where those colours wind up!

It's interesting to create gradients around a theme!

That is very impressive. I don't know how you did this but well done. You can see how someone dubbed me Queen of colours, so long ago on dA I can't even remember who it was. Madness eh! Anyway. Thank you for promoting my colours and my art. Can you add something to the description saying that I would love to be notified too if anyone makes fractals from these. Fractal art seems like a fascinating mystery to me, but I love it. Ooooh its so exciting!

Description edited! It's actually quite easy to create gradients as there's a built-in tool that samples the colours from any .bmp or .jpg you select. However, creating the preview that you see is accomplished using one of my own tools, a spreadsheet that converts the gradient code into HTML.

Interesting! Which program does the built-in jpeg colour samples? Do you know if Corel has such a feature?

Apophysis itself has the sampling tool, although I imagine something similar is available in other image software. If Corel can read .map files, I can convert into those...
