Welcome to Saturday Night Live Art Shows. I’m Mary Ann Benoit, an energy artist and Interior Designer from Seward, Alaska.

Creativity and design happen in many ways. Explore what is possible.

AI or artificial intelligence is a great tool to bring your vision to life. Despite the name, it is not that smart. You need to have a creative vision, tell it what to do, and refine it until it is what you imagine.

 I created these art designs in AI, mixed them with my fractal art, and created these Interior Designs. I love the results and energy they convey.

This collection is “It’s Just the Moon”. The moon affects the oceans, how does it affect you? When the energy around you seems crazy, don’t worry, it’s just the moon.

Raise the vibe in your space today. Great design starts with energy.

My art is a mixture of fractal art and AI, with numerous fractal art hearts, symbolizing living a path with heart.

See my “It’s Just the Moon” Collection in this show at https://maryann-benoit.pixels.com/collections/its+just+the+moon.

What is AI and Fractal Art?

I created this digital art using a combination of AI (artificial intelligence) and Fractal on my computer. AI required using the right words to tell the computer what your artistic vision is, and then revising it over and over until it is close to my vision. Then I create fractal art using special software based on math. I overlay the fractal art images on the AI images. Each image has a special energy message meant to support you in your life. I infuse my energy to support you through the art during the creation process.

I love creating these mediums because it allows me to work with brilliant colors, interesting textures, and incredible detail.

When I first saw Sherwin William’s “Urbane Bronze”, I was unsure how I felt about it. Browns can be nice to work with, rather serene and a color of nature so nice to “bring the outside in”.

According to the color data Urbane Bronze is actually a yellow hue (really, it’s true) that looks brown because of it’s low chroma and lightness.

Sherwin Williams describes Urbane Bronze as as a color to

“Tap into nature with a hue whose warmth and comfort breathe down-to-earth tranquility”.

“As we’re looking to create the ultimate retreat for reflection and renewal, we’re turning to a hue whose natural simplicity and nature-inspired energy cultivate a sense of calm from the ground up.”

“The trend for biophilia continues to shape our spaces, proving that nature is never far away. Urbane Bronze might be a color rooted in nature, but it also has a unique ability to ground a room through organic appeal.”

OK, so it is supposed to help us feel rooted to nature. I thought about where I may have seen this color in nature. Maybe along mudflats at the beach, possibly in rocks and some types of earth. It does remind me a bit of the color of sea otter fur.

Master Bedroom Design

I used Urbane Bronze as the wall color with primarily dark and light greens,  browns and white to create a color palette from nature.

Urbane Bronze is actually a Yellow hue, so this works because it is creating an analogous color scheme with yellow, yellow-green and green that are next to each other on the color wheel.

See my blog article on how to use analogous color schemes,  Create a Harmonious Color Scheme- Go Analogous. 

The mixture of soft fabrics with different metals, wood and pottery add natural elements and a variety of textures.

What are the Pros and Cons of Choosing a Bronze Paint Color?

Pros of Working with a Bronze Colored Paint:

1. Warm and Inviting: Bronze paint adds warmth to a room and can create a cozy and welcoming ambiance.
2. Versatile: Suits both modern and traditional interiors, complementing a wide range of décor styles.
3. Sophisticated: The metallic sheen can lend an air of sophistication and luxury.
4. Pairs Well: It complements a variety of other colors, especially earth tones, deep blues, and greens.
5. Accentuates Features: Great for highlighting architectural details, moldings, or feature walls.
6. Durability: Metallic bronze paints can often be more durable and resistant to damage than flat finishes.
7. Light Reflectivity: Its slight sheen can reflect light, making spaces feel more vibrant and sometimes larger.

Cons of Working with a Bronze Colored Paint:

1. Application Difficulty: Metallic and bronze paints can show brush strokes or roller marks more easily than flat paints.
2. Prep Work: Imperfections on walls, like dents or scratches, can be accentuated, requiring more prep work.
3. Trend Sensitivity: While classic, certain shades of bronze may go in and out of trend, potentially dating the décor.
4. Overwhelming: In small spaces or spaces without a lot of natural light, bronze can feel a bit overwhelming or dark.
5. Cost: Quality metallic paints, including bronze, can sometimes be more expensive than standard paints.
6. Maintenance: Fingerprints, smudges, or dirt can be more noticeable, requiring more frequent cleaning.
7. Limited Availability: Not all paint brands offer a wide variety of bronze shades, limiting choices.

Remember, the success of using bronze paint largely depends on the specific shade of bronze, the room’s lighting, its size, and the accompanying decor. Always test a sample on the wall before committing to a full paint job.

Our intrinsic desire to connect with nature and living entities is encapsulated in the term “biophilia.” Coined initially by Erich Fromm and later popularized by Edward O. Wilson, this concept has found a renewed emphasis in contemporary interior design.

Throughout history, our bond with nature has been pivotal, not only for sustenance and survival but also for spiritual rejuvenation and inspiration. Nature, in all its splendor, offers a plethora of colors, shapes, patterns, and textures that have always intrigued our aesthetic senses. Beyond the visual delight, nature nourishes our well-being. Plants, for instance, not only beautify our spaces but purify our air and offer sensory pleasures. Similarly, our reverence for animals can be traced back through art, religion, and their cherished presence in our lives as companions.

My personal journey as a wildlife biologist for 33 years, trekking the terrains of Arizona and Alaska, deepened my appreciation for nature’s designs. Be it the intricate patterns of plant parts under a microscope or the harmonious color schemes, I’ve often been inspired by nature’s unparalleled creativity.

In an ever-evolving technological world, the essence of biophilia reminds us of the solace nature provides. So, the question is, how can we bring this comforting connection to nature into our homes through interior design?

Natural Materials

Opt for eco-friendly and sustainable materials in both your construction and interior design choices. Discover more in my article on Eco-Friendly Interior Design. Embrace nature by integrating unique finds from your outdoor excursions – think branches, rocks, or shells – into your home decor. Elevate your space with indoor plants that not only beautify but also purify. Enhance your home’s synergy with the outdoors by strategically landscaping visible from your interiors. Design outdoor sanctuaries that beckon you outside. Seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor spaces with design choices and window placements that frame nature as living art.

Plants

Incorporate native plants in your garden to not only attract local wildlife but also ensure sustainability. These indigenous species are tailored to thrive in local conditions, ensuring they’re resilient and eco-friendly by preventing the spread of invasive species that could harm native ecosystems. On my Alaskan adventures, I’ve handpicked native perennials like wild roses, blueberries, and geraniums, which beautify my garden, attract wildlife, and even offer delicious treats. Indoors, adorn your space with houseplants that enhance aesthetics and purify the air. Choose flowering varieties for a burst of vibrant color!

Animals

For many, including me, a home feels incomplete without the affection of a pet. Their presence greatly enhances our overall well-being. When designing interiors, consider pet-friendly choices that not only facilitate but celebrate life with animals. Opt for durable upholstery and washable rugs to minimize pet-related wear and tear, reducing any stress that may come with adding a furry friend. Moreover, cultivate an outdoor space that’s both visually pleasing and teeming with life. Plant flora that captivates the senses and invites wildlife. Thoughtfully positioned plants near windows can provide natural ‘entertainment’, as you watch birds, butterflies, and pollinators drawn to your garden.

Color

• Incorporate nature’s hues into your home’s interior and exterior. As a certified color strategist, I’ve often drawn inspiration from the landscaping colors of clients’ gardens, converting them into paint shades for walls, front doors, or interior palettes. Think of the calming blues of the sky, lush greens, earthy browns, muted grays, and soft off-whites. Highlight with vibrant shades inspired by garden blossoms in pinks, purples, yellows, and reds or the autumnal tones of foliage like golds and oranges. While stark black and pure white are rare in nature, they can accentuate and uplift these natural shades. And remember, if a color dominates your view—even from a neighboring property—it’s worth integrating into your decor palette.

Art

• Get great photos of your outdoor adventures that evoke the feeling you had while you were there for art.
• Consider art that shows landscapes, plants, animals or other natural elements that bring you joy and work with your design and color palette.
• Incorporate energy art that connects energetically and spiritually to nature.

Scents

Scents can have a huge impact on the way you feel.

• Try a diffuser with natural oils of lavender, orange or other scents related to herbs or fruits to make the connection through smell.
• Flowering plants add a beautiful scent to your indoor space.
• Avoid products that emit harmful odors.

Lighting

• Use full spectrum bulbs to get the quality of natural daylight, especially in northern climates where light can be very limited in the winter. Living in Alaska, I can personally attest that they work and affect your mood.
• Lots of strategically placed windows provides an abundance of natural light.

Get the Look and Feel Good

Even amidst urban sprawl, it’s entirely possible to forge a natural sanctuary in your living space. Let’s explore how I transformed rooms with views of nothing but an adjacent brick building into rejuvenating havens. By leveraging earthy tones like greens, blues, and browns, incorporating artwork showcasing flora and fauna, and introducing real plants, I managed to evoke a “feel-good” ambiance that resonates with the calming embrace of nature.

We spend more time in our homes in general than we do anywhere else. Why not make it feel great with some of these tips! If you need help with your design, check out my local and online Design and Color Services.

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 my Aligned Energy Art  series called “Gratitude”, with three fractal art pieces.

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.

“Gratitude” Aligned Energy Art

Gratitude is the Attitude that attracts abundance into your life.

I like to make three pieces that can work together in a group, say behind a sofa. So, I created 3 pieces in the “Gratitude” series.

How can you use Aligned Energy Art in your space?

I created this Edesign, or virtual design as an example of how you could use this art to remind yourself to maintain gratitude in life and so to attract abundance.

How “Gratitude” Art Can Change Your Life

Integrating art that carries a meaningful message like “Gratitude” can deeply enrich your space. Here’s why:

1. Personal Connection: Art that resonates with your values makes your home feel more personal and can remind you daily of what’s important.
2. Flexible Placement: Listen to your intuition when deciding where to place your artwork. It could be in your living room, meditation space, or workout area – wherever you spend time and need inspiration.
3. Versatile Usage: Because this is digital art, it can be used in a variety of ways beyond traditional wall decor. Imagine starting your day with a reminder of gratitude on your coffee mug, or doing yoga next to a throw pillow with your favorite art piece.
4. Inspires Transformation: Seeing a message of gratitude every day can inspire personal growth. You can reflect on this as you enjoy your morning coffee, write in your journal, or practice yoga.

So, embrace art that speaks to you. It’s a beautiful way to make your home more meaningful and inspire daily reflection on the things that matter most to you.

 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.

What is Fractal Art?

Fractal art is a type of digital art created with mathematical algorithms. I use specialized software to generate intricate patterns with vibrant colors and detail. By zooming and panning, I can explore infinite variations within the fractal. Once satisfied, I render the final image.

Fractal art combines science and art to produce mesmerizing and visually stunning designs.

See examples on my websites on Fine Art America.and Society6.

Welcome to Saturday Night Live Art Shows. In this show, I am sharing my “Qi” Aligned Energy Art series and an Edesign of a living room I created to highlight them and express their energy in a space.

Everything is energy. Qi is the life force that runs through us all.

Fractals, as in this art, are an expression of Qi in perfect harmony. Fractals are a visualization of the building blocks of life.

When Qi is blocked in our body, it affects our health and well-being.

Open your mind and heart to connect with the Qi of other living things around you.

Where the mind goes, Qi flows.

You create your life by what you think about.

Surround yourself with art that reminds you what is important and enhances the energy of your space.

How do you feel in your space? Is it ALIGNED with who you truly are?

When your space is better, you are better. When you are better, the world is better. The world needs you.

Choose to create a space that is aligned with You.

The ENERGY of well-being

Welcome to Saturday Night Live Art Shows where I share my fractal art designs in my “Magic” Aligned Energy Art series in an Edesign I created to highlight them and express their energy in a space.

Everything is energy. Magic is what happens when you open your mind and heart to possibility. It is what I feel when I create something beautiful and share it with you.

Tune in and allow yourself to see and feel what is around you.

Magic shows up every day. Sometimes it is big and dramatic, like the Northern Lights.

Often it is in the small things. It happens when we set our intention. Expect the unexpected.

What magic do you intend to make happen? Surround yourself with art that reminds you what is important and enhances the energy of your space.

“Magic” Aligned Energy Art

If you have watched some of my previous shows, you know everything is energy.

I like to make three pieces that can work together in a group, say behind a sofa. So, I created 3 more pieces, and used one design for pillows on the sofa as well.

Using Aligned Energy Art in your space.

This room expresses a Modern, Elegant Bohemian style that is relaxing, rich, and expressive.  It is very connected to nature with the colors and natural materials in the furniture, flooring, rug, and art. The colors, textures and details of the Magic, Magic #2, and Magic #3 evoke a feeling of entering a secret, magical garden where you are noticing and sensing all the small wonders. Magic #4 and #5 evoke a larger sense of wonder you might feel when seeing northern lights.

Surprise your guests with expressions of gratitude for them and who they are with a “Gratitude” serving tray and ” I Love Your Energy” cutting board. Show them you “see them” and appreciate who they are.

If the message of “Magic”, resonates with you, then adding art  like this 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.

Welcome to Saturday Night Live Art Shows! I am Mary Ann Benoit and am with you tonight from Seward Alaska! I am excited to share some new energy art portraits I created for artist Sheryl Benjy, and give you a glimpse into how these pieces of art are created that show your energy when you “Shine Your Light”. These are sacred geometry designs I create using fractal art to express your unique energy signature that we can feel but not see. This inspiration comes from my intuition and reading your energy from photos, words you give me of how you and others would describe you and your favorite colors.

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

Be sure to check out all the other artists from around the world,   having art shows on 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.

When You Shine Your Light, What Does Your Energy Look Like?

When You Shine Your Light, What Does Your Energy Look Like?

Everything is made of energy, as  Einstein’s famous equation.  E=mc2 tells us.

Everything vibrates energy, and all the energies don’t just ignore each other, they dance together at one big party.  Each interaction causes something to happen.

Ultimately, it means that  energy and matter are the same, and they just vibrate at different rates.  Things that vibrate slowly, look solid, and things that vibrate really fast, at or beyond the speed of light are light energy.

When you shine your light and let the true essence of who you are show, what does your energy look like? Is it a beautiful work of art?

Energy waves cancel each other when they are not in harmony, or create new waves, like children.  Sometimes, those interactions create something amazing, like super children, called fractals.

Those, fractals, when they meet in a way that they are in the “Golden Ratio” to each other, create magic! The Golden Ratio is sacred geometry that creates beauty and life!   Literally.

She creates beautiful paintings as well as Body Art for the Soul. this first piece, I called “Whimsical” expressed the energy I felt from her picture below and a lot of her “goddess” paintings as well as her Body Art for the Soul photos.

This second piece, which I called “The Painter”,  was inspired by Sheryl painting this beautiful abstract of flowers. The fractal art reminds me of what it might look like to capture the look of swirling all the paint around that was being used in the flower painting.

For the third piece, Sheryl sent me this photo. The colors and energy in this photo seemed very different from the others she provided.

While looking at her Facebook photos, however, I saw this photo with the red beret, taken by the same photographer. I was very drawn to its energy and my intuition led me to create the piece from this photo instead. I called it “Red Beret”.

This, interestingly, was the piece Sheryl liked best, and had a print made for a desk photo to remind herself of her own personal power.

I felt this piece captured the power I felt within. The colors, shapes and feeling I get from it makes me happy. It brings vibrant energy into my space. I just love it.  Sheryl Benji.

Are You Ready to Shine Your Light?

Fractal art is a form of Sacred geometry that expresses patterns of harmony through which nature draws and creates and can be used guide to one’s own life.

Fractal art is a reminder of how nature does things, a way to reconnect with the perfection of everything that is natural, in harmony and beautiful.

I will create a fractal art -sacred geometry energy portrait of you,  expressing the essence of your energy.

I use 3 or more inspiration photos you provide and ask you for three words you would use to describe yourself and also three words others would use to describe you. I also ask for your favorite colors.

I create three designs for you and upload them to my store on Society 6 where the digital image becomes available on a wide variety of products such as framed art, furniture, pillows, coffee mugs, cell-phone cases, stationary etc. You can purchase what you like to remind you to “shine your light”. If you would like an image with the inspiration photo on it as well, I can do that.

What is Fractal Art?

Fractal art is sacred geometry and 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. Learn more about how it is created in my  Saturday Night Live Art Show, ” A Passion for Purple” where I show some video of the process. See examples at my store on Society 6.

As  a certified color strategist, love playing with beautiful color. One of my favorites is Benjamin Moore’s “Aegean Teal”.

Benjamin Moore describes Aegean Teal,  as  “A blend of blue-green and gray, Aegean Teal 2136-40 is an intriguing mid-tone that creates natural harmony.”

According to the color data (LCH), “Aegean Teal” is a blue/green hue (209.5),  with a Lightness of 56 and Chroma of 8.8. In other words,  it is a pretty saturated and rich blue green that on a scale of 1 to 10 for lightness it is just over the halfway point.

Ways to Use Aegean Teal

Aegean Teal is a versatile, calming, and deep color that beautifully balances blue-green hues. Here are some ways to incorporate this rich shade into various spaces:

1. Accent Walls: Use Aegean Teal on a single wall in a room to create a focal point without overwhelming the space.
2. Kitchen Cabinets: For a chic and modern feel, paint your kitchen cabinets with Aegean Teal. Pair it with gold or brass hardware for a touch of elegance.
3. Front Door: Make a statement by painting your front door in Aegean Teal, especially against neutral exterior shades.
4. Furniture: Revamp old furniture pieces by painting them in this hue for a fresh, updated look.
5. Bathroom: Aegean Teal can be a tranquil choice for bathrooms, creating a spa-like feel. Consider it for vanity cabinets or walls.
6. Bedroom: Use this color as the main wall shade for a serene and restful bedroom ambiance.
7. Accessories: If you’re not ready for a major color change, introduce Aegean Teal through accessories like throw pillows, vases, or lampshades.
8. Trim or Moulding: Painting trims, mouldings, or built-in shelves with Aegean Teal can accentuate architectural details.
9. Ceiling: For a twist, paint the ceiling in Aegean Teal while keeping walls in a soft complementary shade.
10. Textiles: Consider curtains, upholstery, or bed linens in this shade to bring warmth and depth to a room.
11. Pair with Complementary Colors: Aegean Teal pairs beautifully with warm earth tones, soft beiges, and even some muted corals or terracottas.
12. Home Office: Create a focused and calming environment by using Aegean Teal in your home workspace.

Consider the room’s lighting and other color elements, as this can affect how the color is perceived. Regardless of how you choose to incorporate it, Aegean Teal can bring a sophisticated and balanced feel to any space.

Master Bedroom Design

I  decidec to create a master bedroom design using Aegean Teal for the wall color and chose a primarily monotone color scheme with other similar blues and a few green accents.

My design celebrates circles and curves, mixes modern pieces with antiques, and mixes soft fabrics with glass, metal and pottery. I used my fractal art from the “Jenna” collection in the comforter, the pillow shams and accent pillow, the wall art, and on one of the antique chairs. My fractal art celebrates curves and spirals. To learn more about spirals and fractal art, see my blog article What Does Your Art Mean?

By using this beautiful color and a monotone color scheme, I think the room has a very relaxing and serene feeling. The energy in the room seems soft and flowing with all the curves, but still interesting with the mixture of hard and soft textures.
