When you fuse art, science, and energy in your design, magic happens. And trust me, it’s simpler than waiting for the stars to align!

The perfect piece of art doesn’t just beautify a room—it anchors it, delighting the eye, dictating the color theme, and setting the room’s energy. Changing the art can change the energy of your room. Let art breathe life into your home.

While ‘energy’ might sound intangible, you’ll recognize its presence the moment you step into a room. Everything in your space, tangible and intangible, is woven from this energy. And don’t we all want our rooms to not just look, but also feel spectacular?

I am also an energy artist, and my designs include custom energy art and home decor that ties your design together, creating beauty, harmonizing your colors and reminding you what is important to you. I create art specifically to support you.

Your perfect space is key to your well-being.

Imagine a space that looks great, feels great, and supports you to be great.

Art’s energy in your space stems from three main elements:

1. The room’s designer, be it a professional interior designer or yourself, shapes the ambiance, setting the stage for the art.
2. The artist pours their emotions and interpretations into the artwork, giving it its unique vibrancy.
3. Lastly, you breathe life into the art, interpreting it through the lens of your own experiences and emotions.

 

Your selection of art determines the energy you want to surround yourself with.

How do you want to feel?

How the Room Designer Affects the Energy of the Room

I created this Living Room Edesign to showcase the versatility of purple in Global Style designs. This is part of a series exploring how different Global Styles can be achieved using various colors. Global styles like Indian, Turkish, Mexican, Moroccan, Greek, and Bohemian are known for their vibrant hues, eco-friendliness, cultural treasures, and close ties to nature, making them perfect for gatherings.

This particular design represents a modern take on Global Style, offering a sleek, contemporary twist on Bohemian aesthetics. You can delve deeper into the world of global styles by exploring my other blog articles featuring purple, blue, green, red, and black-and-white palettes.

Purple, residing between red and blue on the color wheel, embodies qualities of both neighbors. Like blue, it exudes calm and relaxation, reminiscent of wildflowers found in nature. At the same time, it can ignite passion and energy akin to red. Darker shades often evoke a sense of wisdom.

Purple carries rich symbolism, from status and royalty to spirituality and creativity. Its versatility allows it to resonate with a broad audience, making it a complex and intriguing color.

I’ve designed this space, setting the stage for art to infuse its unique energy. As each artist contributes their perspective through their work, we’ll witness how the room’s energy evolves and transforms

How the Artist Affects the Energy of the Room

I selected art from two of my favorite artists, Brooke Harker and Joan Marie of Joan Marie Art, and picked a piece from their websites that I thought worked with the colors and scale of my design. I also designed some of my own fractal art to go in the room.

Let’s see how the art changes the feeling of the room for you, the viewer, and how it relates to the energy and meaning the artist was inspired by when they created it.

Feeling the energy of visual images is the
language of the subconscious mind.

Joan Marie- Joan Marie Art

“Buzz and Flow” by Brooke Harker

The painting “Buzz and Flow” by Brooke Harker, is a 66 x 45 ink, oil & acrylic on canvas. Brooke painted this image of Hong Kong.

 I am a historian of the ordinary.” Brooke Harker.

Brooke says, “This is one of my favorite paintings I ever created. I selected the magenta color as it reminded me of the energy of a friend who celebrated life vividly. I put elements in the piece that fascinated me such as a single woman walking in stride or a taxi”.

When I am creating the painting I am in them and they seem larger than life. They always feel so small comparatively when they are done and on a canvas.

I selected this piece for the room because of the high energy and the color, not knowing the meaning behind it from Brooke’s perspective,

As soon as I put it in this room, I felt it added a sense of vibrant, high energy that you might feel on the streets of a large bustling city where all the people brought the energy of their lives as they walked by.

Yet, the purple walls seemed to contain it with a sense of calmness. As if life can seem chaotic and wild all around us, but if we just step back, it is all small stuff in the big picture of things.

I asked Brooke how she felt about the energy of her painting in this room. She said it evoked a sense of curiosity.

How does it make you feel?

Brooke Harker is a contemporary artist based in Los Angeles, California. Her lively paintings of cities and coastal scenes are characterized by energetic brushstrokes in ink and thick oil paint applied with palette knives. These vibrant depictions of daily life capture a sense of motion and highlight moments of synchronicity. Brooke calls herself a ” historian of the ordinary.” Learn more about Brooke and see her work on her website.

“OoGenesis” by Joan Marie Art

I love the colors in this painting and selected it for the room because the colors worked with purple and it seemed so vibrant and joyful.

In my previous career, I was a wildlife biologist, and it reminded me of a super colorful version of a cell getting ready to divide and create new life. It felt like joyful colorful energy about to explode with possibilities. It just glows with joyous energy on the wall.

When I asked Joan about the story behind the painting, she said it is “the birth of a new world, the uniting of colors, all holding hands in unity.”

“Oogenesis”,  was named by Joan Marie’s husband after she told him the meaning behind the painting.

I asked Joan how she felt about the energy of her painting in this room. She said ” it takes me to a peaceful mystical world of well-being and magical possibilities. Just beautiful!”

 It takes me to a peaceful mystical world of well-being and magical possibilities. Just beautiful!”. Joan Marie Art.

How about you, how do you feel when you see Joan Marie’s art in this room?

Joan’s art is filled with radiant colors and explosive energy in which she transforms energy in a magical mix of techniques. She embeds positive subliminal messages into the intricate details of her work. She believes we have the opportunity to choose what we create, whether choosing a piece of art or our lives.

“A Passion for Purple” by Mary Ann Benoit

I created a set of three fractal art pieces specifically for this room, which I call “A Passion for Purple”.

Fractal art is digital art I create on my computer.  I love the spiral and curved shapes, fine textures, and vibrant colors.  Creating fractal art is like traveling through a kaleidoscope that has no beginning or end.  When traveling, you find a place you want to stop and stay awhile. The art I create is that place.

I wanted my art to reflect the complexity of purple so that it was calm, yet vibrant, mysterious, spiritual, and elegant at the same time.

I love the way the dark rich purple colors really ground  the room, yet the light purple glows with serene energy. It feels very calming, yet vibrant and mysterious as well, as if it has the secret to some ancient wisdom.

Creating fractal art is like traveling through a kaleidoscope that has no beginning or end.  When traveling, you find a place you want to stop and stay awhile. The art I create is that place”.  Mary Ann Benoit

How does this art make you feel?

Mary Ann Benoit is the owner of Northern Lights Home Staging and Design and is an Interior Designer, Color Strategist and fractal artist. Fractal art is a form of computer or digital art. “Creating fractal art is like traveling through a kaleidoscope that has no beginning or end.  When traveling, you find a place you want to stop and stay awhile. The art I create is that place”.

What is Your Sense of This Room

Now you know the energy that was behind the room design, the color purple, the different art and even how some of us felt about the room with the different art pieces.

My guess is that you had your own unique ideas about the energy you experienced in the room because you brought your unique perspective.

That is the beauty of art and design. There are so many possibilities!

If you are working with a designer, be sure to collaborate closely when you select your art and consider the energy of the room.

Welcome to Saturday Night Live Art Shows ! I am Mary Ann Benoit and am with you tonight from Seward Alaska! So excited to be with you tonight to share some of my new Aligned Energy Art,, called “Attachments”, and three fractal art pieces I would like to share.

Thanks to Saturday Night Live Art Shows creator, artist Brooke Harker and her co-hosts Joan Marie of Joan Marie Art, Sheryl Benjy, and Nichole McDaniel for making this possible.

Be sure to check out all the other artists from around the world,   having art shows in their Facebook and social media feeds at 6-9 pm in their time zones. Follow Saturday Night Live Art Shows on Facebook by searching #snlartshows.

 

Introducing “Attachments” Aligned Energy Art

Budda said “the root of suffering is attachment”.

 

I learned from my teacher Jim Fortin, that the biggest cause of suffering in our lives comes from our attachments, or expectations of the way we think things should be. When we don’t get what we want or how we want it, we are unhappy. Maybe we can release attachment to the idea of how things should be and just allow them to be what they are.

 

If they are not how we want or expect, maybe that is a good thing that is opening the door for something more wonderful to come into our lives.

 

This art was inspired by the energy of attachment in our lives and all the chords that bind us to the outcomes we expect and want. 

As you can see, there are chords of attachment between every part of the design, creating one interconnected whole.

Although the greens and blues are colors of nature and often are calming and relaxing colors, these pieces have a sense of high energy because of all the endless linkages.

As I usually do, I created 2 more pieces to go with it, so you can see the movement between pieces and use three together over a sofa t create a focal point in a room.

How can you use Aligned Energy Art in your space?

If the message of “Attachments”, or future concepts I plan to create resonate with you, then adding art that is meaningful as well as beautiful is a great way to create your perfect space and remind yourself of what is important in your life each day when you see it.

Art like “Attachments”  can be added to your living room,  meditation, or workout area or wherever your intuition guides you to put it.

Because this art is digital, it can also be put on a variety of home decor products such as pillows, bedding, serving trays, coffee mugs, notebooks, and more. So you could think about “Attachments”   as you sip your morning coffee out of a “Attachments”  coffee mug while writing things you want to release your “Attachments”  journal, for example, drinking out of your travel cup on the way to work or doing yoga on a “Attachments”  mat.

 Aligned Energy Art  is another layer of meaning beyond the visual beauty in creating your perfect space that is  aligned with who you want to be.

An Example

I created this Edesign, or virtual design as an example of how you could create a space using this art and express the energy of “Attachments”  in your space. Note the “Attachments”  fractal art on the framed canvases on the wall, the serving tray on the coffee table, the pillow on one of the chairs, and the place settings on the table.

Your selection of art determines the energy you want to surround yourself with.

What is Fractal Art?

Fractal art is digital art I create on my computer. I love creating fractal art because it allows me to work with brilliant colors, interesting textures, and incredible detail.   of the process. See examples at my store on Society 6 or Pixels.com. I also create mosaics of AI art and fractal art. See some examples in the video below.

Introducing “A Passion for Purple”

I am excited to share my fractal art with you,  called “ A Passion for Purple”.

I am an Interior Designer specializing in Edesign, or virtual or online design and I like to create fractal art and home decor to go with my designs.

Sometimes I create the art first and then design a room to highlight the art, and other times I create the room first, and then design art to go with it.

What is Fractal Art?

Fractal art is digital, abstract art created by math. I create it on my computer. Luckily, I don’t have to do the math myself!! I love creating fractal art because it allows me to work with brilliant colors, interesting textures, and incredible detail.

Sounds complicated but working with it is kind of like magic. It is like traveling through the inside of a kaleidoscope and looking for a cool place to stop and stay awhile. Once you stop and everything freezes, you can play with color and texture and light and shine, and all kinds of things until you create the perfect image. Then you take a picture of it. From that, I can create art on a canvas, in a frame, on a wall hanging or fabric, curtains, rugs, bags furniture, and whatever you want! This makes it really versatile for Interior Design which I love.

Let me show you what I mean. Let’s take a little trip into the kaleidoscope and see what it is like.

A Trip into the Kaleidoscope

https://northernlightsstaging.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/outputvideo.mov

Traveling through the “kaleidoscope” when working with fractal art.

Once we stop, we can play with the color and texture, and light. When you have just what you want, you take a picture. Every creation is unique. If someone asked me to make something just like another one I had made, say in a different color, I could never find the exact spot again in the kaleidoscope….it would be like finding a particular drop of water in the ocean.

Playing with color, texture, light, and shine in the “kaleidoscope”.

What Comes First? The Room or the Art?

So in the case of this particular series,  A Passion for Purple, I created the room first and then designed the art to go with it. I had wanted to explore how purple can be used in Global Style designs. and what the energy would feel like using this color.

What’s So Great About Purple?

On the color wheel, purple is between red and blue and can take on aspects of its neighbors. Like blue, purple can feel calm and relaxing, and is the color of nature, as many wildflowers are purple. Like its neighbor red, it can feel stimulating, energetic, and passionate.   Darker shades of purple are sometimes associated with wisdom.

Purple is a symbol of status, wealth, and royalty, and it has also been used in religion, linking it to spirituality and mysticism. Some believe it inspires creativity. Because it is versatile in its meaning, it connects with a wide range of people and is a complex color.

I wanted my art to reflect the complexity of purple so that it was calm, yet vibrant,  mysterious, spiritual, and elegant at the same time.

I like the way the dark rich purple grounds the room, yet the light purple glows with serene energy. It feels very calming, yet vibrant and mysterious as well as if it has the secret to some ancient wisdom.

Your selection of art determines the energy you want to surround yourself with.

Change the Art, Change the Energy of the Room

I thought it would be interesting to explore how other art would change the energy in the same room so put art from Saturday night live art host Brooke Harker and co-host Joan Marie in it to see what would happen.

As you can see, each piece changes the energy! Learn more about these amazing pieces, “Buzz and Flow”, by Brooke Harker and “Oogenesis” by Joan Marie,  in my blog article, Let the Art Be the Heart of your Home.
