Free Vector Graphics

MDE Productions — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 17:20:02 +0000

Vectortuts has posted an amazing compilation of 60 Free Vector Graphics for Digital Art Pros. Vector Graphics are based on mathematical equations to represent images, and are most commonly created and used with the image editing software Adobe Illustrator. This allows the images to be scaled in size without any loss in quality or pixelization of the graphic. One of the most interesting features of vector graphics is that they are primarily composed of geometric shapes. Various filters, gradients, and patterns can be applied to the shapes, but this generally does not allow for the same level of subtle detail as raster formats. However, the free vector graphics are extremely well made, and have intricate details that are rarely found in free image packs. The free graphics also include a variety of styles and categories of images, which could spark the creativity of even the most seasoned digital artists.

Fractal Art Gallery | Fractal Artists

MDE Productions — Sat, 20 Sep 2008 15:25:29 +0000

Fractal Art, at least the visual kind, is often referred to as art that is made up of a consistent pattern at varying degrees of size. So the entire image often looks similar to a tiny portion of the image. Sometimes that rule is pushed beyond the limit, or a tiny portion is zoomed in and adjusted. But regardless, the effect is mesmerizing. Another interesting aspect of fractal art is that the images are initially created via mathematical formulae. Interestingly, formulas can be attributed to the growth patterns in nature, or the construction of both animate and inanimate objects. The fractal art form takes those concepts a step further into the world of creativity. For a quick overview of some amazing fractal art, check out this great series of images created by fractal artists entitled, Fractal Art: Complex and Beautiful Color Inspiration.
