Huge thanks to a friend (I know him and he sent me a photo of the print framed) who bought :thumb360375283: recently and to the customers who bought twice :thumb327918486: For the 2 sales of Layered Dreams, DA sent me the notification few minutes ago, so this is an excellent present for my Birthday.

Made today new fractal, still rendering it, but I found again something new. I mean a formula that gives me what it's called - foam marbling, to make better seas.

The reason is that an expected solo exhibition of mine in Spain, was moved earlier for this month, so will have to arrange lot of things.
Also I want to congratulate the new owner of a print from my fractal "Close Reach" :thumb204874738: and tell a big "Thank you"! The fractal is tested many times, prints fabulously and I hope the owner will enjoy it as I do. ]]> http://raysheaf.deviantart.com/journal/New-virtual-exhibition-277182140 http://raysheaf.deviantart.com/journal/New-virtual-exhibition-277182140 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 00:43:26 PST New virtual exhibition. nonadult journals/personal raysheaf http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/r/a/raysheaf.png?1 Copyright 2012-2013 =raysheaf @raysheaf http://raysheaf.deviantart.com/journal/New-ships-soon-276045608 http://raysheaf.deviantart.com/journal/New-ships-soon-276045608 Tue, 27 Dec 2011 01:12:01 PST New ships soon... nonadult journals/personal raysheaf http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/r/a/raysheaf.png?1 Copyright 2011-2013 =raysheaf @raysheaf What a wonderful Christmas and a DD yesterday for a work I really like a lot!!!
When I was in Madrid last week, beside some temporary exhibitions of great importance like the visit of the Hermitage in Prado and big exposition of Eugene Delacroix, I visited also the Naval Museum there. It is one of the 3 most important naval museums of the world, God knows how I didn't visit it earlier!? There is super-detailed and very big scale models of all kind of ships (about 3 meters long), huge amount of authentic guns and weaponry from great battles like Trafalgar.
