This paper describes a simple but flexible family of Haskell programs for drawing pictures of fractals such as Mandelbrot and Julia sets. Its main goal is to showcase the elegance of a compositional approach to program construction, and the benefits of a clean separation between different aspects of program behavior. Aimed at readers with relatively little experience of functional programming, the paper can be used as a tutorial on functional programming, as an overview of the Mandelbrot set, or as a motivating example for studies in computability.
