1000+ Fractal Art Brushes and Textures for Creating Light Effects
Light effects can be easily achieved through fractals brushes and textures. Fractal Art (FA) has been around for about 15-20 years. These days, digital graphic designers make use of fractal art in creating abstract and beautiful lighting effects such as backgrounds of websites and other design forms.
Fractal Art is a genre concerned with fractals—shapes or sets characterized by self affinity. Small portions of the image resemble the overall shape and an infinite amount of detail, at all scales. Fractals are typically created on a digital computer, using an iterative numerical process. Lately, images that are not technically fractals, but that share the same basic generating technique and environment, have been welcomed into the FA world.
