...As long as it keeps doing that I'll be okay I guess. I'm really not feeling good today, but I have a new painting that I'll be posting WiP details of soon, so that at least is a good thing! Thank you for your interest in my work, and I hope you're having a wonderful, productive day!

...Or is the drink reaching for you? I hope you can tell the difference. But whether you actually "need it" or not, I hope you find the strength to ask the question. Though I am not someone with "a drinking problem", I am someone who understands having problems like that, and I sympathize with your struggle! This was done mostly in aqua, but accented with warm tones like red and gold, with some hints of purple. Thank you for you consideration!

Reaching for a Drink - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This one looks to be in a constant state of motion, swirling in on itself, in a very dynamic way, similar to a big wave crashing into sand on a beach, and captured in a split second exposure. Even the colors evoke such an occurrence, as it looks to have churned up even the heavier, darker sands, as the blue water intrudes into it. Afterwards the sands will settle again, and may produce beautiful new patterns. It's sometimes good to remember this in times of turmoil, and I hope that you do. Thank you for considering this with me today!

Dynamism - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

To me this looks like "a sample of Melonism" found in nature, although that's patently ridiculous, because it seems to exude watermelon essence in its colors and patterning. Hopefully this is not "suffering" from this "affliction", but rather benefiting from this aspect of nature. ...But you be the judge, as always! What do you see? If you tell me you won't be taking away from the work, but rather adding to it, and that is (almost) always appreciated!

Melonism - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This looks like a surreal, dream landscape to me, nestled in the clouds of the subconscious in green, orange and purple. Thank you for looking!

The Dream Path - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This looks very much like a figure presenting a gift, to someone on the left of the frame, or perhaps they are simply pointing in that direction? In that case the "offering" would be "directions" to something. ...Probably the bathroom. In any case, thanks to them for the offering! And thank YOU for accepting it with me!

Offering in Red - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

There's something primal about this one... partly I think it's because of the shapes resembling a wolf skull, but also in the energy which seems to be contained within - ready to burst forth in a display of either fight (fright), or flight. Which will it be? The dominant colors are aqua, copper, light purple and green, and the composition is almost anatomical, almost like a scientific illustration. Thank you for taking a look!

Instinct - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This one resembles an insect chrysalis, or a quiescent insect pupa, in the green shades often made by moths and butterflies. There seems to be some sort of light emanating from within... perhaps the new life, forming inside? Thank you for your interest in my artwork!

Chrysalis - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

There's a lot going on in this one... It's not a total mess, that is to say, there is a pattern to the design, but it's full of very fine details. The colors are rich and varied, with an emphasis on red, blue, green, and gold. The image plane seems to be tilted toward the horizon, like a detail from a larger image. Thank you for looking!

Quagmire - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

For some reason the pink, orange and gold tones in this remind me of that particular spice - of the flavor and aroma, and the darker structures also call that spice to mind! What do you see when you look at it? Whatever it is, thank you for looking!

Black Cardamom - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

To me this resembles the view from a broken window, at a world on fire. Perhaps for some this will evoke peaceful, tranquil feelings, and that is the magic of Art. They can sometimes take the horrors of life, and transform them into something else, entirely. Every silver lining has a cloud. Thank you for your interest in my work!

Sky in Anger - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This one is basically a field of blended color, in orange, aqua, green, pale yellow, and brown, with a system of vein-like lines in blue and silver, superimposed over it. To me it expresses the excitement and anticipation of a future event. Let's hope it's a good one!

Vibes - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

"Fragmented and disjointed" are two terms that one might use to describe this one, and though it's also colorful, it's all over the place, going in every direction. It looks like there are at least 2 light sources, representing focus in many directions at once, resulting in a many-layered assemblage of thoughts and emotions. ...Have fun! :p Honestly though, it's amazing to me how fast your thoughts can race, when your body is exhausted, and totally at rest. It seems so normal to be speeding through the universe at the speed of light. Thank you for contemplating this with me today!

Daydream - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This one's made of earth-tones, with a strong orange presence with yellow accents, and hints of gleaming gold, silver, copper, and bronze. It looks to me like an abstract figure, with a bird of pray super-imposed over it, in profile. I hope that you find your own heart to be strong, and brave, when you most need it.

Falconheart - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This is almost entirely monochromatic, in shades of green, and represents the endurance of life. It is intended to give hope, in the Springtime, and I hope that it does, for you. <3 Thank you for your continued interest in my work!

Ovary - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

It's no unusual for my artwork to found to resemble landscapes, but usually they are seen from the air, not the ground. Not so with this one, to me it very much looks like a road that curves into the distance, through a pastoral landscape with mountains and fields, in yellow and green. Thank you for taking a look!

The Road Less-Traveled - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

To me this looks like a primordial creature, emerging from the marine environment into a new coastal one - a world apart, yet "soon" to be its new home. The "boundary" in this case is made of bronze-colored fractal field patterns that seem to separate the lower-right portion of the image from the top-left one. The lower is mostly Earth-tones and warm hues, indicating the coastal environment, and the upper is mostly blue and aqua tones, for the water. Thank you for your interest in my artwork!

Landfall - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This, to me, looks like a huge chunk of a continental plate has been torn away in one go - pretty, but destructive. I feel this way a lot - what's happening is drastic and disruptive, but in the collapse can come positive change, in spite of the original intent of the disruption. When it comes to positive inspiration, we sometimes take what we can get. I hope this helps get you through the day! Thank you for giving it a shot with me!

Continental Rip - 2025 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

While the term "culture shock" seems negative to most, it can be a positive, beautiful thing to immerse yourself into a different culture. It pushes the boundaries of comfort, like Art often does, thereby expanding that boundary. In this, it's represented by a small, purple area which seems to intrude into a larger green and bronze one. The contrast of size and color is the central theme, but the unification of both occurs as the light hits them - they both gleam in a golden light. Thank you for your interest in my artwork!

Culture Shock - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

If you squint just a little, you might see an angelic figure in the top-right portion of the image, hovering above a maritime "land"scape. The sea is violet and bronze, the sky is orange-yellow, and the overall mood is one of dynamic motion, and awe at the hugeness of nature. Thank you for visiting this place with me!

Dawn Angel - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This one reminds me of a woven blanket, in its many colors. Looks a bit frayed, but nature is perfect in her imperfections, in my opinion! The strong greens and orange dominate in this, accented by pink and golden tones. There are many delicate, branching details, as usual! Thank you for your interest in my work!

Afghan Valley - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

Considering the fact that I've already titled something "Migraine", it may not come as a complete surprise that I suffer from headaches, and today is no exception. I should do a series of different types of headache, depicting how if feels to have each one. I've now done 2, but there are plenty more where those came from - sinusitis, allergies, head trauma... I've had them all! Artistic expression is medicinal. Thank you for visiting me in the pain ward!

Nervous Tension Headache - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

As Winter wanes, the cold weather continues, while the daffodils bloom. I hope you have a wonderful Springtime, I think we all need one! This image is definitely Wintry in theme, with blues and greys in great abundance, and a crisp, intricate feeling to go along with it! Thank you for your interest in my work!

Winter's Last Breath - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This one resembles a ride-affected landscape to me, with bits of something remaining... The main colors are aqua, gold, red, and bronze, with a delicate application, looking almost like a flashlight beam against a glimmering, mineral-rich cave wall.

Sand Castle Ruins - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

"Old growth" is a term that comes to my mind, when viewing this one... It appears as though a dense mat of plant life has lived and died over many years, allowing only hints of its inner, orange light to escape. Thank you for your interest in my work!

Hidden by Time - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

I attempt, both in my real-life artwork and digital renders, to carry a sentiment of "natural formation" that resembles processes that can take eons in geological time. From sedimentary alluvial deposits to flowstone found in caves, my intent is to "echo" some of these natural processes, in order to capture some of their visual appeal, and overall feeling. This one is done in bronze-Earth tones, aqua blue, and metallic gold. Thank you for your interest in my work!

Newly Discovered Formation - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This one resembles a flat plane which resembles the matrix material of a fossilized animal, with the remains of said animal rising slightly, becoming visible. The dominant colors are red, orange, metallic gold, and green. Thank you for your interest in my artwork!

Fossil - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

This could also be titled "Waiting for Christmas" because of the red, white, and green color scheme, but we're a bit out of season for that... However the nervous excitement of that is captured here, for use whenever you need! Thank you for taking a look!

All Aflutter - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

It looks very much like heavy volcanic activity in this one... from the usual aerial perspective (luckily!). Long, thick lava plumes can be seen to emanate from a central point, and radiate from it in all directions. The main colors are red, gold, and aqua-green with some earth tones, with many delicate details. Thank you for your interest in my artwork!

A Fractured Land - 2026 #Nature #Art #AbstractArt #Painting #NaturalProcessPainting #FractalExpressionism #LorenGAN

I'm not sure why I title my artwork after songs, but I suppose it's because I've always been so influenced by music. Certain images call to certain songs to my mind, and I think I've just been wired that way. It's more than just the turquoise color, it's the crisp, coolness of it, with light gleaming off of many fine, intricate details, like the light from the morning sun. Good morning! I hope you have a wonderful day today!
