Obviously the first thing to do:

• Open Gimp

Go to file>New

• Width= 400px
• Height= 600px

Go to Filters>Render>Clouds>Solid Noise

• Random Seed- 3
• Check off the Box "turbulent"
• Detail- 15
• X size- 10.3
• Y size- 11.6
• Click "OK"

Go to the toolbox and select the Blend tool (Gradients)

• Select the gradient that says "Yellow Contrast"
• Where it says "Mode", go to "Soft Light"
• Go to Shape>Spiral (cw)

• Stretch the gradient tool diagonally, horizontally, vertically, whatever/however you want

Your end result should look something like this:
