A simple Mandelbrot form of concave and convex shapes is rotated with layers of liquid colour and embedded in a soft gesso ground. The hexagonal grid evident within the image continues a lattice formation that I have been investigating for some years. There are also fractal indications at the juncture between liquid flow and material resistance within many of the colour applications. While my concern is with structural relations in painting terms, these images support visual comparison with growth forms in nature. 'Nature' Painting #1 closeup 'Nature' Painting #1
