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

How do you feel about time? Is there never enough? Does it fly by or stand still?

We think of time as linear. What if it’s not, and all things are happening at the same time, but you just see one aspect of it?

Ever feel like you have been somewhere before, or have a memory from a distant time or place you have never been?

Is it a past memory behind the veil of time? Or a concurrent event?

My Interior Design, and energy art on the walls, pillows, and furniture remind you to keep an open mind about time and to change your perception to suit you.

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.

“Unveiling Time” Aligned Energy Art

If you have watched some of my previous shows, you know everything is energy. Including time. Here are some of my energy art pieces highlighted in the show.

 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.”

Contact me to work together and create a design that is perfect for your space. Here are a few of the pieces I used in this design.

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.

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

Energy art portraits express who you truly are when you shine your light. I created this fractal art piece, inspired by this photo, to express Joan Marie, a Visionary Artist of Joan Marie Art, shining her light to the world.

What do I see in this photo?

A huge heart exploding with creativity, joy, and love. A spirit filled with fun, colorful abandon, and spiritual wisdom. In my art, I portrayed a butterfly, which is a symbol of joy. And hearts, for Joan Marie is living a path with heart, and doing what she loves. Joan Marie loves brilliant colors and is adventurous, energetic, and fun. With a triple-exploding heart that touches the world. A heart so big, it can not be contained. It affects everything around it. Healing itself and others in the process.

Thank you for sharing your joy and love for the world.

Welcome to Saturday Night Live Art Shows. I’m Mary Ann Benoit, an energy artist and Interior Designer from Seward, Alaska. In this show, I share four fractal art designs in my “Solar Plexus Chakra” series and show you how you can increase your personal power and sense of well-being with energy art and the design of your space.

Would you like to enhance your self-confidence and feel more powerful?

Do you worry about what people think of you, and seek constant approval?

Do you often doubt or mistrust people? Do you have digestive issues?

The energy of your solar plexus chakra may be blocked.

Everything is energy. This chakra is also called the Manipura chakra, which means a beautiful gem. My fractal art shows gem-like qualities and contains the energy and color of the solar plexus chakra.

Yellow inspires happiness, optimism, energy, creativity, and sharp thinking. I infuse my energy into my art and designs, to help give you what you need. Mixing that with your intention to heal yourself, makes for a powerful combination of energy in your home.

Use this art to create new beginnings, stand in your power, boost your self-confidence, and proudly shine your light. See how to use this art in these Edesigns I created for this show.

Everything is energy. My fractal art is sacred geometry. It represents the building blocks of life and what energy might look like if you could see it. Why not raise the energy around you to a higher level with art, for your health and well-being? Surround yourself with art that reminds you what is important and enhances the energy of your space.

See my “Solar Plexus Chakra” Collection at https://maryann-benoit.pixels.com/collections/solar+plexus+chakra

Learn more about each piece of art and how it affects the energy of the room, All combined create a living room that is supportive and inspires you to live joyfully and stay in alignment with who you are meant to be.

And you can vary the look and feel of the room with the same art but different paint colors. Need help picking colors? Call for a color consultation.

Do you love bringing the outdoors in? I do too. A beautiful example is this Edesign I created for the Seasonal Living Design Challenge.

Participants were to design a space in a Modern to Modern Farmhouse higher-end residential home, containing at least 3 Seasonal Living products, and 2 seasons should be reflected in the use of each space. Spaces should emphasize the concept of “Wellness”.

Seasonal Living

Designing a space that enhances the use of outdoor space as well as indoor space and is usable for more than just one season of the year is wonderful for making the most of your space and your well-being.

Seasonal Living provides distinctive furniture and decorative accessories that invite people to connect with the outdoors and live in rhythm with the four seasons.

I believe my design is perfect for spring, summer, fall, and winter with its indoor and outdoor fire features and roof that covers the outdoor space.

Wellness

I believe the concept of wellness is critical in creating the perfect space for you. Wellness is about having a healthy environment that inspires peace and well-being. Bring wellness into your space in the following ways.

• Color– Use the energy of color to bring peace, calm, well-being, or inspiration to your space.
• Biophilia- Bring the outside in by creating a seamless interplay between the outside view and the interior. Use natural materials and elements in your space.
• Art- Select art that has a meaningful message that inspires you whenever you see it.
• Natural Materials- Use natural materials such as wood, metal, glass, wool, clay, stone, cotton, etc. for a healthy environment.
• Light, Fire, and Sound- Let your space and yourself breathe in an area with plenty of light, fresh air, quiet, and the comfort of a fire in the fireplace.
• Uncluttered space– Give yourself room to breathe, move freely and relax. Too much clutter feels chaotic and does not allow your eyes to rest.

Color

This design uses a primarily neutral color scheme interspersed with greens, blues, and yellows to harmonize with the outdoor landscape. The colors are peaceful, relaxing and give the feeling of relaxing in the forest. The walls are a very light green and the ceiling a light blue, to blend with the forest and sky increase the flow between outdoors and in.

Biophilia

As humans, we want to be connected with nature and other living things such as people, animals, and plants.  This longing for “connection” with other life forms is called “biophilia”. See my article on biophilia for more details.

Some of the ways of doing that, which I incorporated in this design include:

• Use natural and eco-friendly materials for building and decor. In this design, I used lots of glass, wood, wool, wicker, stone. Seasonal Living also uses natural and recycled material whenever possible.
• Use indoor plants to provide a variety of colors, textures and improve your indoor air quality.
• Use the colors of nature in your home, inside and out. The furnishings are primarily neutral colors, allowing the art, plants and accessories to add colors and textures to harmonize with the outdoor environment. The walls are green and ceiling blue to allow the eyes to rest and help the inside flow into the outside.
• Use lots of strategically placed windows for an abundance of natural light and views.
• Select art that enhances the energy you want to surround yourself with, inspires you and helps remind you who you want to be.

Art

Art can have a big impact on the energy of the space and how your feel in it.

• Consider art that shows landscapes, plants, animals, or other natural elements that bring you joy and work with your design and color palette.
• Consider art that tells the story of something important to your well-being. In this design, I used 2 of my recent fractal energy art series. The first, in shades of greens, is called “Release”. It not only portrays the release of the season of fall into winter but the release of all the things that no longer serve you or your well-being. Note the design in the wall art, pillows and tray on the coffee table.

“Release” Fractal Art

See my Saturday Night Live Art Show on my “Release” art to learn how it was made and more about the energy behind the design.  “Release” is all about releasing all the things in life that do not serve you or contribute to your well-being.

The greens and fall colors add a feeling of calmness and well-being as if sitting in a beautiful forest. This is the feeling I want to have as a result of releasing what no longer serves me. It works together perfectly with the exterior landscape and the Seasonal Living furniture.

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.

“Attachments” Fractal Art

See my Saturday Night Live Art Show on my “Attachments” fractal art to learn more about these pieces. Buddha said that attachment is the root of all suffering. This art reminds us to release the attachment to outcomes and trying to control things, and let them be how they are meant to be.

Light, Fire and Sound

Lots of sunlight, a warm, beautiful fire in the fireplace or outdoor fire pits, candlelight and the sounds of nature are the extra touches that make magic happen and increase your wellness in un-measurable ways!

The Experience

I enjoyed developing a design using Seasonal Living products and exploring the flexible concept of indoor/outdoor living. I love that their products are sustainable and created or inspired by artisans. I liked being about to meld it with my own fractal art and loved the experience of creating a design that flowed seamlessly between inside and outside and could be used in all seasons of the year.

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. Learn more about how it is created in my last Saturday Night Live Art Show, ” A Passion for Purple” where I show some video of the process. See examples at my store on Fine Art America and Society6.

Bohemian style celebrates warm earthy colors, metals and jewel tones. Bohemian decor often uses deep browns, greens, grays or other neutral colors for base colors, then accessorizes with saturated purple, fiery orange, and electric blue and other jewel tones.

Bohemian style lovers are often carefree, dislike rules and want to follow their heart’s desire!

Do you like vintage furniture and light fixtures, globally inspired textiles and rugs, and love displaying your collections of cool things found at markets. thrift stores and in your travels?

I bet you like glamorous fabrics, lighting and accessories with well-worn items, antiques or cool pieces from other styles. Anything goes if it makes you happy. More is more!

Bohemian style is a global design style. Global styles are all about your worldly adventures and telling your story! They are usually very colorful, rich in bold designs and natural textures, patterns, colors, and arts and crafts of various cultures.

Get the Look and Celebrate Your Favorite Color- Blue!

A great way to get the look of Bohemian style is with a beautiful area rug. It can become a focal point for your room and help guide the color scheme and your choices for accents and accessories such as throw pillows, art, lighting, and more.

Celebrate your favorite color by picking a rug that highlights it and build the rest of your room around the work of art you picked for your floor.

One of my favorite colors is blue, so here are some examples of my favorite blue Bohemian or global style rugs.

My Favorite Blue Global Style Rugs

I changed the look of the following living room by changing the rug and sometimes the paint color. See how the room changes its look and feeling just by changing the pattern of the rug and shades of blue in the room, while still using the same art, furniture and accessories.

CRAIL AREA RUG

I love the colors and the abstract modern watercolor design of this rug.

BARN AREA RUG

This rug has a Transitional, Bohemian, Vintage vibe.

THOUSANDSTICKS AREA RUG

Love the rich teal colors in this  Bohemian, Vintage rug made in Turkey.

BEVERLY AREA RUG

Love the colors and the textured look of this more contemporary design.

KENMARE AREA RUG

One of my favorites, I just love the design and colors of this Bohemian, Vintage rug.

And for those of you a little scared of so much color, you can still get your blue fix with the rugs, furnishings and art and go neutral on the walls.

LIMESTONE AREA RUG

I love the vintage look of this area rug, and it is a great rug if you love darker blues.

KAI Area Rug

Here is a beautiful Bohemian-style rug that you could use with a dramatic blue room or a more neutral room. I have also used some of my fractal art, called Bioluminescence in this design.

Let’s Create Your Global Style Design

Are you ready for your house to go to the next level where your house looks great, feels great, and supports you to be great? Imagine that. 

What’s it like when you are living in the perfect space for you?

My philosophy of great Interior Design, which I call Aligned Design, considers three key factors; art, science and energy. The intersection of the three is where the magic happens.

Creating a space that envelops you in your vision of beauty and color, while fine-tuning the energy of your space to promote wealth, health, love, and perfect self-expression aligns you with the universe, allowing you to live your best life so you can make a positive impact on the world.

Global style Interior Design is part of the art of great design and one of the things you are really going to love about creating the perfect space for yourself. Are you ready to immerse yourself in rich beautiful colors and truly tell your story?

There Will Only Ever Be One of You

There is only one of you in all the world. There will only ever be one. You are here to do what you alone are meant to do for the world in your unique way. Are you doing it?

One thing I have learned over the last year is that there is a reason I am here. That is to do what I am meant to do in my unique way, because no one else can do it like me.  

It is funny. I was doing a home staging job the other day and the client asked what made me special. It effortlessly came out of my mouth, “Because I am the only one in the universe that can do things uniquely as I do them. I am what makes me special”.

This was not meant to toot my own horn. It just is the way of the world for all of us.

It is just that some of us recognize and celebrate it, and others are still learning the lesson.

We owe it to the universe and those around us to be our authentic selves. Otherwise, we are depriving others of what we were meant to give them as we try to fit in and be someone else instead.

In many ways, this last year was the best year of my life.

Yes, really.

Why? Because it was a year of learning and transformation.

Instead of dwelling on all that was wrong in the world, I decided to learn and grow and make the most of the time I unexpectedly had.

Times were hard in many ways, but I also learned how to deal with those hard times in a different way.

As things are getting back to normal in some ways, I feel differently.

It is like I am in the eye of the storm where all is calm while everything around me seems chaotic as others are trying to get back to “normal” Maybe “normal” wasn’t so great. Is that the place you want to go?

I feel the way I do is because of a program I went through and continue to do, called TCP (Transformational Coaching Program). The program helps you transform from the inside out, and helps you to BE the person you want to be, so you can DO the things you need to HAVE the life you were meant to have.

It helps you get in alignment with what makes you unique and why it matters.

Are you intrigued? Is the little voice in the back of your mind saying “I don’t have time or money for that right now” because you are busy DOING all the things you think are important?

Believe me, I get it. I am the ultimate DOER. I felt the same way.

 I took the program anyway, and am so glad I did.

It is easy to go on for years without changing our lives for the better. For me it was always the struggle between the short-term pain versus the long-term gain. You can always convince yourself you will start tomorrow.

Imagine yourself thinner, healthier, happier, wealthier, and more peaceful. Living a life filled with abundance without worrying all the time about money or accomplishing all the things. If you were fully convinced it would work for you, you would do it, wouldn’t you?

There is only one of you in all the world. There will only ever be one. You are here to do what you alone are meant to do for the world in your unique way. Are you doing it?

Get Aligned With Who You Were Meant to BE

I joined TCP to increase my income for my Interior Design/Home Staging business.

Although my focus was business, the program instead provided incredible value to my health and well-being.

I changed my habits and lost weight and quit smoking. I started to make self care my priority. I stopped DOING my way through life and learned how to BE the person I want to be. I released a lot of stress and anger and learned how to do things differently. I noticed a huge difference in my feeling of peace and well being.

I then took a TCP business class which helped me become more aware and aligned with what makes me unique and how to make that the focus of my business. This shaped my philosophy of “Aligned Design”, which aligns art, science and energy to create your perfect space.  

Even though this business class was all about making more income for my business, the more I learned, the less important money became to me and the more important creating expansion in others lives and being of service became. Ultimately, that increased my business and income, and I was more aligned with what I was meant to be doing so was having more fun!

The programs are run by Jim Fortin and his amazing team of coaches. It includes a private Facebook group where there is onoing coaching and community, weekly content such as workbooks, videos and audios with homework, followed by weekly Facebook lives with Jim and the coaches on a wide variety of topics from health to business. We worked on things like clarity, vision, sub-conscious values, habits, self-integrity, responsibility, commitment, choices, relationships You could also ask for coaching on any topic in the FB group or do a “hot seat” on one of the live calls. The community of people in the group from all over the world is extremely positive and supportive.

Get on the Waitlist for the next TCP Program. I think this is the best training I have ever invested in. It made a huge difference for me. I hope it can make a difference for you too.

Check out Jim Fortin’s Podcast. This is how I started and it’s free.

Listen to this podcast episode- Why Your Bad Habits are So Hard To Break. This one really helped me to change some of my eating habits and lose weight, even before joining the program.

This is a great episode too. How the Law of Attraction Repels Money and Abundance you Want.

Listen to the Master Thought Formula, which is amazing!

Do you love yellow, and the look of Global Style Design? Fill your home with your favorite color, and the rich colors, exotic designs, and hand-made works of art that bring the beauty of different cultures to life in your space. Varying shades of yellow and gold are used in Bohemian style and Modern Global styles.

Yellow is used in various shades and saturation levels in many different cultures. Warm shades of yellow are much loved in Indian-style designs. Yellows, particularly golden yellows are often found in Turkish rugs. Golden yellows are popular wall colors in Morocco. Bright lemon yellows to earthy golds are popular in Mexican-style design.

Throughout time, in many parts of the world, the color yellow has been regarded as the color of wisdom. It is optimistic and may help with concentration. It is energetic, bright, cheerful, playful, and carefree.

Yellow can create a sense of warmth and coziness, but be careful not to use too much. Some research has shown that too much of a good thing can make people lose their tempers more often and can make babies cry. Although I can see how a lot of crying babies could make people lose their temper more often too!

Use your judgment and consider how yellow makes you feel. Try soft yellow wall colors and save brighter yellows for accents, or use brighter yellows in smaller rooms to test it out.

Get the Look with a Great Yellow Paint Color

Get the look of various global styles with a great shade of yellow on your walls, combined with global style art, rugs, pillows, and lighting. See examples in my Edesigns below. I share some of the products I used to help you get the look. Most contain affiliate links, meaning I make a small commission if you buy something for sharing with you at no additional cost to you.

You can go light  or dark and dramatic. 

Go Light

This Bohemian Style Bedroom Edesign uses a light yellow wall color with yellow accents in the pillows and furniture, and yellow/gold accents in the rug, art and mirrors.

This Bohemian Style Living Room Edesign uses a light shade of yellow on the walls and touches of yellow in the accents and gold in the rug.  Yellow accents harmonize with the more prevalent yellow/green accents in the pillows, art and dining chairs.

Get Dramatic

This Modern Global Style Living Room Edesign gets dramatic with a rich gold wall color and rug, often found in many global styles. This design uses a complimentary color palette, based on blue and yellow as its compliment on the color wheel.

Get the Look with Yellow Accents

Here is another version of the modern global style bedroom Edesign above where yellow is primarily used as an accent in the pillows and furniture, planter, and also in the brass accents.

In the Bohemian style bedroom Edesign below, yellow again was used primarily as an accent  in the mural and the bright yellow/gold rugs.

Do you love orange, and the look of Global Style Design? Fill your home with your favorite color, and the rich colors, exotic designs, and hand-made works of art that bring the beauty of different cultures to life in your space.

Orange is used in various shades and saturation levels in many different cultures, and shades of orange are a natural color of the desert and of rocks in many areas so shades of orange can be quite common, such as when you see terracotta.

On the color wheel, orange is between red and yellow and can take on aspects of its neighbors. Like red, orange can feel vibrant and get your attention. Like its other neighbor, yellow, it can feel light, creative, and fun.

Orange is a vibrant, happy,  expansive, optimistic, and creative color that inspires socializing. It is fun and warm (from the Land of Color). It is exciting and draws attention (which is why it is used for signs).

Regarding global style, brighter orange shades are common in Bohemian, Indian, Mexican, and Moroccan styles on walls, fabric, and decor items.  More muted terra cotta colors are also used in Turkish,  Mexican, and Moroccan styles on the walls, floors, rugs, and pillows. Greek-style does not use orange very often, but you could add beautiful orange accents, considering it is a compliment of blue which is very common in Greek design.

Get the Look- Turkish Style

Turkish style is warm and inviting, earthy and exotic. There is an abundance of warm earth tones that come from orange terracotta shades reminiscent of desert colors.

In this Turkish-style living room, I used a dark terracotta paint color to highlight my fractal art from my Great Conjunction collection. Learn more in my blog article, Get the Look- Global Style Turkish.

Get the Look- Mexican Style

Mexican interiors are full of color, are welcoming, warm and there is often a sense of playfulness and whimsy. Colors are bright. Red is common and yellow is also used heavily in shades ranging from bright lemon yellow to deep earthy golds. Terracotta is common. Blues are commonly used in art and accessories.

In this Mexican-style living room, I used a deep burnt orange paint color to highlight my fractal art from my Great Conjunction collection.

Get the Look- Modern Global Style

In this Modern Global style design, where I was creating a split complementary color scheme to work with the deep blue sofas. Orange was one of the compliments. Learn more about this color scheme in my blog article, Great Paint Color Schemes- Try a Split-Complimentary.

Get the Look- Bohemian Style

In this Bohemian style bedroom, I used one of PPG’s colors of the year, Big Cyprus, which is a terra cotta color. I used blue accents, which is a compliment to orange. Learn more in my article,  Great Paint Color Schemes- Try a Split-Complimentary

Do you love purple, and the look of Global Style Design? Fill your home with your favorite color, and the rich colors, exotic designs, and hand-made works of art that bring the beauty of different cultures to life in your space.

Purple is not commonly used in many cultures because it was often an expensive color to create. So when it was used, it was often associated with royalty. 

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 it’s other neighbor, red, it can feel stimulating, energetic and maybe 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.

Regarding global style, I have used it in Indian style design as I have found the color used in some beautiful Indian rugs. I think it can work beautifully in Bohemian and Modern Global styles as well.

You can often find purple used in accents in Morocco. In Mexico, shades of purple can be seen on stucco walls,  furniture, fabrics, and architectural features.  Purples are often found in Turkish rugs, providing inspiration for the rest of the decor.

Purple is not a color commonly used. Be bold, celebrate color, and try it for yourself.

Use Purple and Contrasting Colors for a Bohemian/Mid-Century Modern Look

This Edesign mixes purple with contrasting orange, yellow and green in the art, rug, and accents to create a colorful room that is a mixture of Bohemian and Mid-Century Modern styles. My Spring fractal art collection brings a nice contrast in green to the purple walls and ties to the green outside, helping to bring the outside in.

Modern Global Style- Change the Feeling with the Lighting

Whatever purple you choose for your walls, will change it’s appearance based on the light. The light is always the boss. So consider if you will like the way it looks at night and during the day. This Edesign highlights my Deep Purple fractal art. I love the way the people looks in the different lighting. Learn more in my blog article, How to Make Magic Happen in Your Home with Lighting.

Try a Neutral Wall Color with Purple Art and Accessories

In this Edesign, I selected a wall color that is more neutral with just a touch of lavender and highlighted the purple fractal art I created, called “A Passion for Purple”. I also used purple in the rug and furnishings. The neutral wall really makes the purple art and accents pop!

Do you love blue, and the look of Global Style Design? Fill your home with your favorite color, and the rich colors, exotic designs, and hand-made works of art that bring the beauty of different cultures to life in your space.

Blue is associated with tranquility, peace, nature, water, and the sky. It is considered by some to be a “cool” color and may affect your perception of how warm or cool you feel in a space.

It may at times evoke a feeling of sadness, which may be where the expression “feeling blue” or having the “blues” came from.

Blue is the majority of people’s favorite color and is considered a “trustworthy” color.  It is a nice color to consider for business for that reason if you want customers to feel comfortable and relaxed in your space and to trust you.

Blue means different things in different cultures. If it is in a country’s flag,  it is often an important color in that culture. Regions near oceans or lakes, often use blue in their interiors.

As with all colors, individual experiences affect how you feel about certain colors.

Get the look of various global styles with a great blue paint color combined with global style rugs, pillows, art, and lighting. See examples in my Edesigns below. I share some of the products I used to help you get the look. Most contain affiliate links, meaning I make a small commission if you buy something for sharing with you at no additional cost to you.

You can go light and airy or dark and dramatic as in the two living rooms below that both use a monochromatic blue color scheme.

Shades of Blue in Modern Global Styles

Modern global styles are clean and uncluttered, with more straight lines but mixed with patterns and textures from a variety of countries in the rugs, pillows and often the art.

Because blue is generally a relaxing color, I used it for both this Modern Global Style office and Wellness Center.
