I made the paisley in Inkscape, then did a Gimp Emboss on it....

(Yes, my favorite color is purple...)

Made this paisley from cobblestones and gave it a purple tinge to keep in Wallace's good books

Awesome work everybody! I particularly like yours sallyanne. I love the colours.

Awe thank you Erisian

I doubt I could do as good as the others though.

Hey hello there stranger, great to see you.

Hi sallyanne, great to see you too.

Given Erisian's new paisley threads, thought I would make some fractal like paisleys too - in glass of course :

Awesome stuff OMG. Glad you have been inspired. :paint

What he said! They're beautiful, OMG, real gems. Are you sliding into the fractal addiction now? It's a slippery slope, brother, you'll find you're making alien landscapes in mandelbulb 3D before you know it... :hehe

Here's my take on Erisian's fractal paisleys - I love that they are fractals but really look like paisley units, so I tried to enhance that as much as I could, and turn them into a seamless pattern at the same time.

Anmal and Erisian - thank you for your comments. I have always liked fractal styles and use JWildfire a bit, but I am trying now to make my own fractals in GIMP, using stroked paths and GMIC.

EDIT - here is my first attempt -

I really like what you have done with this AnMal. It's stunning! :hi5

Nice work again OMG. :coolthup

I must agree, OMG. Your work is stunning! AnMal, I really love the pattern you made seamless from a beautiful but complicated looking pattern. Erisian, keep making those beautiful fractals so AnMal can take them and make wonderful seamless designs!

Kimba, Erisian and Pat - Thank you for your kind comments.

Here is the 'GIMP home made' fractal I created for the glass paisley above. But somehow Anmal's influence seemed to permeate it ...

Very nice, OMG.
(there is also Wallace's influence on the colour....)
