MOCA - Week 3


This week’s artist is David Makin who is a computer programmer and lives in North Wales, England. His artistic genre is fractal art which is can be called mathematical images.

He creates his artwork using mathematical formulas (color algorithms). The artist uses software applications Ultrafractal and MMFrac in creating his masterpieces.

The image I chose from his works is called “Starfruit.” He created this artwork by creating three separate color algorithm layers that would define the artwork. These layers compose of the shape, color, texture and characteristics of the image. It is a very technical and complex process.
This image was a winner of the International Benoit Mandelbrot Fractal Art contest in 2006.
