Description
Made in UltraFractal 5.True beauty is something that never completely fades. There are always traces left to speak of it in an old woman's smile, the way an aged man carries himself, in the classic lines of a rusted automobile, under the scratched surface of a fine antique. We just need to look beneath the surface to see what is still there.
FULL VIEW PLEASE! There are details in this that cannot be seen in the preview image. Thanks for looking!

I am now three months behind in thanking those who fave my work and am beginning to think that I'll never be able to catch up. If I don't thank you, it's not because I don't appreciate your faves and comments. The message probably is buried under all those messages. I want you all to know how much it blesses me when you comment on or fave one of my fractals, so I'll say "Thank you" here.

Such a rich interaction of subtle colours and shapes, with very strong organic resonances.
Without being able to say exactly why, the image reminds me of Kandinsky's early experiments with abstract art.

I'm flattered! I did an image search of his work to compare and there are a few of his that do remind me of this. I think it was the unusual combination of colors and the sense of movement I get from his paintings.

Thank you, Anna! That encourages me, so I think I'll upload this to redbubble too and submit it to their abstract gallery.

Thank you! I'm so glad that you saw that here. It's hard to make comparisons with abstract art and have people understand the message you're trying to get across. I feel like I've accomplished something, if this piece has spoken to you. You've made my day.

You very welcome
Yes the composition and the title go perfectly together,
layered and full of depth like a face full of smile wrinkles

Thanks! I was trying to emulate rust here. I think rust is another example of the beauty in something old. It has so many vibrant colors.

It's truly unique. It has both the opalescent textures of the seashell and colours and patterns of fabric. I love these carboard like raised shapes and the yummy colours.

Thank you! I just love the texturing capability of UF. I want to learn to make textures in Apo to import into UF. I think the combination would look good. I'm still in the stage, with Apo, of learning to contort the basic parameters.

Thank you! My kids don't believe me, but I can see the beauty in an 80 year old woman's face. They're still young and all they see is an old person.

We, in all probability, may never meet but that makes us none-the-less still friends. I have found such kindred souls here on DA, people who are understanding, encouraging and just so wonderful to put into words(but I will eventually, as I always do
