Art possesses a transformative power. Consider embracing symbols like the spiral, which energetically align with you. When curating art for your space, reflect on its significance. Why is it your choice? Beyond its hues, forms, and designs, does it resonate with a memory, emotion, journey, or a cherished individual? Dive deeper than aesthetics; connect with its essence and the personal narrative it brings into your space.

As an artist who creates the art for your space, the meaning behind what I create is important to me. I usually create abstract art that is not about a specific person, place or event but is more about the colors, shapes and feeling that it evokes. Some shapes are more meaningful than others and tend to draw you into creating more and more with the same shape. I find that much of my work revolves around spirals.

Spirals are prevalent in nature, in a beautiful sea shell, the unfolding of a new fern, the shape of a pine cones or the petals of a flower.

Spirals are meaningful cultural and religious symbols. They often symbolize connection to God and universal energy, and can represent harmony, beginnings, focus, a journey, direction, and progress. The spiral progression is symbolic of the route to a higher level of consciousness.

In some Native American cultures, the spiral is a sacred symbol of birth, rebirth and personal power, a metaphor for personal vision and enlightenment. They honor the grouse as a symbol of the sacred spiral, because the grouse does a spiral dance.

It can represent growth and evolution, eternity and continuity and is one of the most common symbols found among petroglyphs created by ancient or primitive peoples.

The whirling dervishes of some Sufi orders are masters of the spiral dance or whirling which they use to transcend to higher states of awareness and connect to God.

Spirals are important in great design, from the Mona Lisa to the Pyramids. The spiral is an example of the Golden Ratio which is a mathematical ratio. When used in a design, it fosters organic and natural-looking compositions that are aesthetically pleasing to the eye. The ratio is even used to create music masterpieces.

Even the Milky Way, the galaxy that includes Earth and our solar system – is an example of a spiral galaxy. We live in one big, beautiful spiral.

That’s one powerful shape.

In summary, the spiral is a symbol that has been used in art across cultures and epochs. Its meaning can vary based on context, culture, and the artist’s intention.

1. Life Cycle & Growth: Spirals often represent life cycles, growth, and evolution. They can symbolize the journey of life from birth to death or the natural progression and transformation of life.
2. Connection to the Universe: In many ancient cultures, spirals symbolize the cosmos or a spiritual journey. They can represent the vastness of the universe or the interconnectedness of all life.
3. Eternal Life: Due to its never-ending pattern, the spiral can symbolize eternity and immortality.
4. Change & Development: Spirals can represent the idea of expansion, change, and development. It can be about personal growth or the evolution of a concept or idea.
5. Feminine Energy: In certain contexts, the spiral is symbolic of the womb and fertility, representing feminine energy and birth.
6. Natural Phenomena: The spiral is often seen in nature, such as in the patterns of shells, galaxies, or the way water whirls. As such, artists might use it to represent nature, mathematics, or the golden ratio.
7. Journey & Progression: Spirals can also symbolize a journey, be it a spiritual, personal, or physical one. It can denote progression, taking a path, and continuously moving forward.
8. Mysticism & Rituals: Spirals have been used in various rituals and religious symbols. They can indicate deeper knowledge, mysticism, or a connection to the divine.

In art, the meaning of the spiral can be personal to the artist and the energy they have infused into it, or the viewer.

When viewing spiral art, consider the context in which it was created to fully understand its intended significance.

Art with Power

“The Spiral” Energy Art

As an energy artist creating spirals, my intention is that the spiral is a symbol of personal transformation for you. Each piece inspires and uplifts you to be in alignment with who you truly are.

Everything is Energy. The spiral represents the energy of evolution, life, consciousness, and creation. Since ancient times it has been a symbol of growth and transformation. The spiral in your space is a reminder and invitation to shed your old skin and become something new.

This “Spiral”series is dedicated to Jim Fortin, who inspires us to transform and be our best selves. See my Saturday Night Live Art Show on this series.

“Infinity” Spiral Energy Art

My “Infinity” collection is a reminder that everything is energy including every object in your home, and the people, animals, plants, furniture, etc. Is the energy harmonious like an orchestra playing together or chaotic like an orchestra tuning up? A home that feels great has harmonious energy. Your art plays a big part in that. How is your energy evolving and what is it creating?

See my Saturday Night Live Art Show highlighting my “Infinity” series.

“Yin/Yang” Spiral Energy Art

This series inspires balance. Yin is female energy, and Yang is male energy. We all have, and need both, to get things done. Are you an over-doer of all the things? Try focusing less on masculine doing and more on feminine receiving. Yin receives ideas and inspiration. Yang puts the ideas into action. Yin receives the rewards of your actions. Yang takes the action and celebrates. Balance is the key to happiness. As above, so below. As within, so without. See my Yin/Yang collection here.  See my Saturday Night Live Art Show on this series below.

“Phoenix Rising” Spiral Energy Art

Step into the fire, burn away all your hurts and fears that define who you and rise from the ashes of all that does not serve you. This is part of my Fire Element collection. In Chinese healing arts, the fire element represents transformation, divinity, power, and passion. It can also represent destruction. The fire phase is a state of peak power and manifesting. Here you are in the maximum state of doing and activity. See my “Phoenix Rising” collection of spiral art here.  See my Saturday Night Live Art Show on this collection.

“Deep Purple” Spiral Energy Art

Deep purple embodies various energetic connotations:

1. Spirituality: Represents divine connection and higher consciousness.
2. Transformation: Signifies profound change and perspective shift.
3. Mysticism: Linked with magic and deeper mysteries.
4. Royalty: Historically associated with nobility and wealth.
5. Intuition: Resonates with inner wisdom and insight.
6. Protection: Seen as a shield against negative energies in spiritual practices.
7. Creativity: Encourages artistry and imagination.
8. Deep Emotion: Symbolizes introspective feelings and thoughts.

In essence, deep purple connects the material and spiritual, embodying upliftment, transformation, and contemplation.

 

“Bioluminesence” Spiral Energy Art

In essence, bioluminescence reflects nature’s magic, adaptability, and the dance between fleeting beauty and profound depth. It is a reminder to appreciate or embody the following:

1. Mystical Wonder: Nature’s magical display.
2. Inner Radiance: Shining from within amidst external darkness.
3. Adaptation: Nature’s clever survival tool.
4. Nature’s Rhythm: Representing balance and harmony.
5. Transient Beauty: Fleeting yet captivating.
6. Deep Exploration: Delving into mysteries, whether within or in the universe.

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.

Sheryl Benjy Shining Her Light

Sheryl Benji shines her light with the creation of her beautiful art. She radiates a beautiful calm energy and her art is colorful and whimsical  . 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.

Sheryl Benjy is an impressionistic painter, body painter, creative coach & creative educator dedicated to bringing you the inspiration you need. Visit her website to learn more. Also, check out her wonderful “Creative Spirits Podcast”.

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

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

Like the definition of beauty, that goes on for infinity. 

Really. It is called fractals.

Everything is energy. Your house, your car, your cat, your cell phone, your thoughts and you.

You probably have heard about Einstein’s famous equation.  E=mc2.

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?

Science knows that the entire universe is a sea of ​​energy, all interconnecting. 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.

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.

Either the energy waves cancel each other when they are not in harmony, or create new waves, like children. I guess there was some harmony there Sometimes, those interactions create something amazing, like super children, called fractals.

“Sacred geometry describes the forms that energies create as they  interact,  share  and play together,  each adding to the whole in an infinite and harmonious way.  Sacred Geometry is defined on the Urban Dictionary as “the underlying geometry in nature.” Including fractals, reoccurring patterns, and ratios.  It underlies the growth of plants and animals and our own DNA.  Some believe this is the true cause of the formation of matter, gravity and consciousness.

Sacred geometry creates balance, including both male and female energy. Famous architects, and artists such as Salvador Dali, and possibly Leonardo Da Vinci used sacred geometry and the Golden Ratio to create their art.

An Example

Joan Marie of Joan Marie Art is an inspiration to everyone that knows her. She radiates joy, love and positive energy to everyone around her and through her art, and in doing so, she inspires others. She is always “shining her light” to the world.

Joan has loads of pictures on Facebook, but when I saw this photo of her, I thought it is the epitome of who Joan is. She is a burst of color and positive, radiant, fun, and loving energy surrounded by a world of people in dull colors. As she unapologetically shines her brilliant colorful light to the world, onlookers are torn between “I am trying not to look but can’t help it” and “You are weird but I wish I was more like you”. I just love the expressions of everyone in this photo! You can see how her energy is interconnecting with people and “creating something new” in their minds, like the little super children energy waves, or fractals.

And here is what it inspired. The colors are very close to what is in the photo, which also captures the shapes of the balloons and the “shiny”aspect of Joan shining her light out on to the world. Joan is at the center of the spiral of beautiful and colorful energy that radiates out to the world, creating “super children” which will keep radiating out and repeating into infinity.

When you shine your light on the world, you never know who you will inspire and then who they will inspire, and so on and so on. 

Whatever you do, whether it is a word, a smile, a piece of art or just holding colorful balloons in public can have an impact.

What a fabulous vision! …capturing ones’ energy through such expressive and beautiful movement and colors is so powerful and captivating. Your expression of our own dynamic and fluid energy stays in our soul, connecting us with a new and inspiring vision and experience of ourselves! I just love this! Yes, everything is energy! And now you are offering a new way to experience our energy. What an amazing new mirror! Joan Marie
