• I’ve posted a new wallpaper, “Lone Tree”, on the new images page this morning. This one started out as a simple experiment with the Vue d’Esprit plant editor (trying to make an interesting looking tree) and I think it turned out nicely.

  I’ve posted two versions. The version in the Pickle Jar contains a figure reclining under the tree enjoying the view. Jessie and I had a brief debate on which version should be featued. I thought it added a sense of scale to the image and a little drama. She thought that the figure distracted the eye from the background. I went with her decision (being the good husband that I am) but thought you all should have a say as well.

  Check them both out and drop in a comment if you have feelings one way or another.

• It seems that many of you think the orange version of “Axiomatic” I posted yesterday is superior to the blue version. That’s fine with me (I like it better too). I’ve swapped the orange version into the main gallery and the blue version will remain available in the Pickle Jar.

  Onward and upward now…

• I’ve added dual and triple screen versions of “Axiomatic” to the gallery this morning. I’ve also added a version with a different color scheme in the Pickle Jar (multi-screen versions also available) for those of you who wanted a little variety.

• Added a new abstract, “Axiomatic“, to the gallery this morning. This one (and “Colorwheel” for that matter) continues a theme, Mandalas, that I have had a lot of fun with over the years. Something about them just fascinates me for some reason.

  After my last project hogged my machine for nearly 3 weeks, one of my goals with this one was to create a detailed and interesting piece that rendered in under an hour. I’m happy to report that “Axiomatic” renders in only 6 minutes on my machine. The entire image is composed of cubes.

  As with most of my abstracts, I know some will like it and others will not. It was fun to make however (after the frustration of my last piece) and I think it makes a nice wallpaper. I hope you enjoy it.

• I’ve posted a cleaned up version of the original “Promise of Spring” wallpaper (without blooms) in the Pickle Jar for those of you who prefer that version. I will go back in a couple of weeks and see which one has a better rating and move that one into the main gallery. Now onto something new…
