# About me
For some time now I’ve been practising my newly-discovered hobby of “drawing” – or rather, colouring-in.I know it’s probably too late for me to learn to produce any kind of realistic art – but slowly I’m finding a style of my own. It seems to involve bright colours, geometric designs and rainbows. Lots of rainbows.
The inspiration for that and the knowledge I’m gathering has all come from studying the artworks of my friends and on this site.
I’m having a wonderful time with it, and want to thank all DA folks firstly for posting the artwork that inspires me to try something similar for myself, and secondly for being polite enough to peruse mine now and then and leave the odd word of encouragement.
It means a lot!

Do you mean the points? I bought some a while ago because it seemed as though I would need them for something - but I hardly ever use them so if I see someone has a donation thingy, I donate some

It's no problem. Your images are stunning.
Can I be cheeky and ask a question? I'm totally new to fractal art. If someone were thinking about playing with it from first, fundamental basics - do you know of any websites/links/starter software that would suit a fractal n00b?
I've made a note of the software you were using, but I'm guessing that's assuming a certain amount of pre-knowledge

Here are a couple of links to fractal programs www.redbubble.com/groups/fract… fractalfoundation.org/resource…
also fractalforums where you can get Mandelbulb, there are many tutorials to be found there www.fractalforums.com/index.ph…
