Like many others, I was amazed at the beauty that arose from iterating such a simple formula. Unlike most, I had the means and inclination to investigate the process further, which fed both sides of me.[5]
In 1999, Mitchell published his Fractal Art Manifesto.[4] The artist Janet Parke notes that in the manifesto, Mitchell suggests that fractal art cannot be made by a computer alone, and that not everyone who has a computer can necessarily make good fractal art. Instead, she explains, Mitchell is arguing that the artist's creative process is needed to inject elements such as the considered selection of colours and gradients, the merging of multiple layers, and decisions on composition such as by zooming in to a fractal.[6]
Mitchell also prepared tutorials on how to create fractal art with tools including Ultra Fractal.[7] In 2011 he served on the panel of the "Fractal Art Contest".[8]
