Trees On Fire is a minimalistic wallpaper I made back in 2007. Like a number of previous images (such as Past the Tree), Trees On Fire makes use of Context Free generated trees. The motivation behind this image was simple; I needed a clean, minimalistic desktop. Something with bright colours and complex shapes can be hard on the eyes, and I wanted something I can stare at and unclutter my mind. This was the result.
I plan to release a tutorial on how this was created so that others can give it a try once I find the time.

Another Day On Earth, titled after Brian Eno’s album of the same name, was heavily influenced by the song “Just Another Day”, as the lyrics were ambiguous but discussed humanity’s astounding ability to “shrug off” some of the most awful events ever committed in our history. I designed this piece to follow the same ambiguous nature, hinting at any number of possibilities as to what is being shown, but without being definitive on choosing any one story.

Past The Tree was an art piece I first created in 2006 using a combination of vectors, fractal images and an assortment of Photoshop brushes and filters. The 2007 Edition was a revised version of the first version, and touted revised colours. After leaving the 2007 design untouched, I decided to re-create it from scratch, ensuring all of the previous elements were fresh and unique. The 2008 Edition is available on DeviantArt, so it seemed only suitable to release a collection of wallpapers to go along with the new design.
These wallpapers are meant to supersede the 2007 Edition wallpapers, given in a previous post; however, I decided not to remove them just in case someone still wanted them.

Osmond is a recent photo taken during a sunset at Adelaide’s Mt. Osmond. Adelaide’s central business district can be seen in the left hand side of the photo. I decided to turn the photo into a wallpaper not only because of its size, but because the perspective and colours are subtle enough to be used as a wallpaper without intruding but detailed enough, I think, to let you just daze into the distance when there’s nothing better to do.

These files have been superseded by the 2008 Edition, which many will find to have a better quality and design.
Past The Tree was an art piece I created in early 2007, when my work heavily revolved around simple silhouettes and colorful backgrounds. I recently revised Past The Tree, and along with these revisions, I decided to produce a number of related wallpapers.
