Crystalline Energy
Using Blender geometry nodes, this image shows a burst of crystalline energy, with sharp, angular forms radiating outward. The interplay of cool metallic and soft warm tones I used hopefully gives it a sense of both chaos and clarity and a blend of intensity and wonder. It’s a dynamic exploration of structure of a moment of creation frozen in time.
Technical notes: Created in Blender 4.2 using geometry nodes and a sky texture. Glass material from Renderkit. Rendered in Cycles.
I also created a version in Photoshop I liked a lot:
This image was derived from the excellent geometry nodes tutorial on Parametric design by Jakob Design. The tutorial on YouTube can be found here. I used a sphere as the base element, and then by varying the extrusion values with random values and using a sky texture and Photoshop I was able to end up with an abstract I really liked.
