created Quetzalcoatl Blossom Variation 3 with various filtering, layering, and color enhancement effects in Photoshop, including among others the KPT filter, and fractal generator, "FraxPlorer". First named, Abstract Image 956, I later renamed it Quetzalcoatl Blossom Variation 3. Through further layering and color effects, I explored this basic image theme in 8 variations. When first gazing upon the finished image, my initial thought was of a large feathery headdress with a Quetzalcoatl style. However, it was more than just a headdress, for a comparable energy up-wells from within the Earth rising into and even infusing the headdress. So with this image I find myself easily imagining a figure in the lotus meditative position through which this energy blossoms from beneath, and fills the headdress. Like all of my digital art, as a final step, I added the digitally embossed Bill M. Tracer Studio logo signature seal, small as not to distract from the design, while decidedly present, showing authenticity.

I created Quetzalcoatl Blossom Variation 1 with various filtering, layering, and color enhancement effects in Photoshop, including among others the KPT filter, and fractal generator, "FraxPlorer". First named, Abstract Image 954, I later renamed it Quetzalcoatl Blossom Variation 1. Through further layering and color effects, I explored this basic image theme in 8 variations. As the name states, this is the first variation of this series. When first gazing upon the finished image, my initial thought was of a large feathery headdress with a Quetzalcoatl style. However, it was more than just a headdress, for a comparable energy up-wells from within the Earth rising into and even infusing the headdress.

I created the base image from which this series was derived with the KPT fractal generator filter "FraxPlorer". I followed up by putting that base image through several more filters, along with several other color enhancements, and layering effects in Photoshop. The result was this piece of postmodern contemporary abstract fractal art, Multifarious Pentagram Variation 7. It is the seventh and last of 7 color variations, complete with the digitally embossed Bill M. Tracer Studio logo signature seal, small as not to distract from the design, while decidedly present, showing authenticity.

Do you remember that poster on Mulder's office wall on the X-Files television show? It showed a flying saucer photograph, and the caption that read, "I Want To Believe"? Actually more than one of these posters was used over the course of that show. The images used in these posters appear to have been derived from, or at least based on, one or more of the photographs of Billy Meier, which is fairly ironic in relation to the issue of believing. For there is considerable controversy regarding the question of the authenticity of Billy Meier's photographs. Among the professional researchers on this topic, some believe his photographs are the real thing, while others do not believe in the genuineness of his photographic work. Regardless of that issue, whether I believe in the work of Billy Meier, or not, I find that personally, just believing is simply not enough for me. No, I want more than just to believe. I want to know! So I created this poster with my own original work of art that is my answer to that "I Want To Believe" poster. As it says, "Belief Is Not Enough I Want To Know".

Here is the next in my ongoing series of poetic stream of consciousness writings, bringing together my abstract art with abstract words.

A few years back I did a series of abstract images I called my KaleidoCross Series. This image is just one small sample of the images from this series. I achieved these images with a combination of layering several filter effects in Photoshop, and a liberal use of a filter tool called Persian Rug.

Once more, this image is another one that I created using the fractal generator software, Vchira, with post work in Photoshop. Like my other most recent pieces, I actually created the base image with Vchira a while back, but just finished the post work in Photoshop on my birthday. This one had more post work than most, and included more than just creating the digital frame, and adding my digital signature. The filtering and layering effects were much more extensive; involving some flipping and superimposing. Great fun.

This image is another one of my 2008 outer space science fiction image creations. As with all my outer space scenes, I created the initial image with Bryce. I then added a few post render effects with Photoshop.

This image is one of my 2008 science fiction image creations. It is a composite of four Bryce renders. Two of them were with different versions of the sky, along with the same landscape. The planet was a separate render, and lastly I rendered up a black and white alpha channel of the landscape. Using these 4 images in Photoshop as layers I brought them all together to create this final image. I then added a few post render effects with Photoshop, including the digital frame.

A little over a year ago I put together this image as an illustration for a fantasy story I was working on at the time. The story ended up on the back burner, as I've pursued other projects. In time, I may return to this story project. I achieved this image with a combination of DAZ/Studio and layering effects in Photoshop.
