Paradise In the Purple Field | A Fractal and Generative Art Project

The bulbs dance to and fro in the leaves. Fascinated, Priscila continues to sing. They continue to amuse her. Sitting among the blades of grass, is content. Much time has passed since she felt the warmth of the sun; the moist soil beneath her feet; the smell of fresh flowers; and the earthy scent of rain gently falling upon her head. She'd almost forgotten the senses.

An exotic place to bask in the autumn glow. In her midst, beauty evidences itself as shadows weave in and out. Tiny anthropods roam happily through the field. Small, furry animals sniff out their next meal. With abundant space, mothers lie all around observing keenly as their offspring pounce, then retreat in playful gestures.

Sounds of birthings penetrate Priscila's ears. Flowers open wide releasing purple butterflies that gather upon her shoulders. Afterbirths fertilize the already rich landscape.

Priscila's large round eyes caresses the scenery as if gorging on her lover's physique.

She reaches up to calm her long, red tresses. Bald spots have replaced thick willowy strands of hair. She cries in horror as dry tears reveal bald spots on a threadbare scalp.

A lump rising in her throat dissipates as she swallows. She sneezes as a dandelion passes, but no breath emerges. She flails her arms, but can't gain strength. She attempts to stand, but her legs feels like thin ropes on a vine.

Frighten, she looks down, then falls to her knees.

Suddenly, a mild wind gains strength and rushes toward her, whisking through her body.

She fades in the evening's purple light as the butterflies course through her body bidding her farewell.

In preparing this fractal and generative art project, my theme was a young lady enjoying a beautiful landscape covered in purple and deep burgundy. She dreams of the beauty of her former life. She continues to enjoy the landscape and its surroundings long after she no longer has a bodily form. She remembers what her life was like.

To create the lovely image of the veiled landscape, I used my pure fractal I created in an advanced version of Apophysis 7X, a fractal rendering program. I titled the fractal "Tender Veil". In naming my fractals, I try to visualize them in unique settings. This veil I wanted to use with either other fractals or images as an overlay or background. Here is "Tender Veil":

I utilized an image filtering program and two stable diffusion programs to produce the beautiful landscape and butterflies.

For the landscape, below are my steps:

Night Cafe Text input:
"Dark Underworld beautiful flower meadow."

Night Cafe Result:

Other stable diffusion images I included in the scene are:

Finally, I located an lovely female image with a band ball effect to represent the young woman:
