How to Make Fractal Equations for Art

Fractals are geometric shapes that can be cut into parts that are a smaller copy of the whole. Many of the images they create are thought to resemble pieces of art. Thus, fractal equations have inspired many a generation of artists, especially mathematician artists. By definition, fractals are created on the computer. However, what the artist does after creating a fractal image on the computer varies from person to person. Fractal art has been used in still images, animation and other media.

Instructions

    • 1

      Use a fractal generator program like The Fractal Science Kit to start generating fractal images.

    • 2

      Export the fractal images created into Adobe Photoshop, or a similar editing software.

    • 3

      Edit the fractal images to add color, multiply the images or otherwise manipulate the data.

    • 4

      Present the edited images in still pictures by printing them in high resolution. You can use them in motion animation by exporting the images to a compatible motion animation editing software.
