Can art reconstruct
the sense of calm
You feel in nature?
We believe it can.
The majority of us are spending our lives rushing through a concrete jungle. Our biggest investment is our health and wellbeing and that of our children and family members. Dark days happened when we felt burnt-out or were vulnerable or our feelings stayed deep inside and unwinding was hard. In those times we turned to a walk in nature to find comfort and security in the beauty around us but now our real nature fractal art can replicate this positive refresh indoors to help keep us on track with our plans towards our goals. Scientists have found that viewing real nature art of a particular mathematic dimension indoors can dampen mind burdens and serve as a micro-restorative experience.
Our art work crafted as Michelangelo said "A man paints with his brains and not with his hands" and motivated by our genuine passion that fractal influenced art can lighten your burden and help convey a calm, positive world flow. We create minimal, aspirational, and future-focused monochromatic art to colourful flourishes of soothing and playful mood boosters for wall prints and causal fashion but always featuring a real nature fractal to help you 'come to the light side now'!
Welcome.
Fracarte - Art of Good Thoughts
When you need to know more, here is our art story.
We sort to take nature's good vibe always with us, practically when indoors, and invite you to
*discover your new pathway with our nature positive arte-tistry in unique prints for walls or casual fashion.
When we felt burnt-out, imperfect or needed to dampen any discomfort in our inner world the viewing of real nature (fractals) provided a respite to move forward.
Our senses told us serenity can be found when focusing on any form of symmetry (fractal) in nature - whether it be a leaf or a sea shell.
To our delight science told us fractals are every-where. Trees and their branches, river systems seen from above, clouds, even the capillaries (fine branching blood vessels) in our lungs are fractal. We found that we are biologically programmed to recognise fractals in nature? Looking at fractals gave us a sense of calm renewal.
Why is Fractal Dimension Relevant?
Shape perception is a very important and mostly unconscious function of daily life. We are constantly scanning our environment and processing visual information to make sense of a world that is built with linear and unnatural shapes. Nature images generated with a specific fractal dimension are found to induce a state of wakeful relaxation in the brain by providing the eye a break from processing geometrical shapes to help change your world in some small, positive way.
When Seeing is Easy on the Mind.
We now purposely work with real natural elements, science and different art mediums to create our fractal fine art in a dimensional 'magic zone' for indoors (straight Euclidean build environments) or after dusk - a feat that has never been accomplished before - can never quite be hand replicated or improved upon in any way - that mix simultaneously to 'lull us, engage us, awe us and make us self-reflect' to now bring forth our authentic self '**.
Calm is the vessel of power!
...come to the light side now!
We create art that celebrates nature beyond
the surface to make you and the world a better place
Do you just look at nature and see a green blur?
Nature has so much beauty to offer - fractals with symmetry galore!
Studies showed us that incorporating nature images in built environments may improve attention, learning and cognitive function. So by combining the findings of real natural shapes with a specific fractal dimension we aim to reap the maximum benefits in these studies for you and your precious family.
We are based n the beautiful Northern Rivers coast of New South Wales overlooked by Mt. Warning (its Aboriginal name, Wollumbin was added in 2009) our relationship with nature transcends words and translates, with international collaboration, to more than just proud makers of real nature art.
We aren't a traditional art maker, we are a wellness art business founded on using VISUAL prevention via natural therapy, creativity, humaneness, innovation and science to disrupt and ease mind discomfort indoors in approximately 60 seconds.
Fracarte presents a great 'aesthetic with meaning' addition for wall décor in homes, school rooms, corporate workplaces, community centers, hospitals and health environments.
We strive to create so much more than an average static art piece, by incorporating a fractal element into our artists' various traditional, contemporary, modern, abstract and street styles for all those wanting to ease or balance the everyday stresses of life or even just time to relax and remember how spiritual everything really is

Looking for truth
We are amazed that over the centuries the entire system of nature is always changing yet never ceasing to be true to its own self.
Thus magically we discovered specific depiction of real nature in art is a stand-in for serenity, greater thought and spirituality.
Our aim isn’t to just add beauty though - our artwork harmonizes real nature complex forms to be pleasantly absorbed through the eye - perfect for visual rest - helping open up your mind as well as your soul to calm and to contemplate your own values and worth, so wear it well or place this artwork close-by to remind yourself nature is always there, and about all your gifts and wake to a new dawn
...come to the light side now!
We searched for a momentary escape from reality
We feel visual fluency processing indoors is important in today's modern-day world - where buildings skew from straight lines. We made great efforts so that we don't risk losing our connection to the natural stress reducer nature by creating 'art for indoors' (or when the sun goes down), as on the whole spending time and enjoying the outdoors may not be achievable and the positive effects will be less efficient as it will generally be intermittent.
Discovering 'Fractal mathematics' not only allowed us to begin modelling the real shapes of nature it also re-awaken our childlike wonder at the world around us.
We feel our vibe of art work is nurturing, whimsical, emotional and sensuous
with the colourful 'lyrical abstraction' background fine art described as:
'The freedom, intuition and soothing nature of the work comes not from
childishness, but from an enlightened effort to be unrestrained'. Roam free.
Our free-hand continual line drawings also have their own movement based on the mood and rhythm of the artist and with 'fractal magic' imbedded in the art we help you ride-out your mind-waves. Peace be with you!

New perspective
Stress is a pollutant we all have felt and affects our physical, emotional, and mental health
and is on the rise. However, it's not just modern life that causes us to feel this way, it's also being in the wrong mindset and
an unsupportive environment.
When we are indoors or when daylight fades (or within our northern winters of snow and ice or in our desert regions) we all too often neglect or have no access to the exterior realities of beautiful nature fractals. This mental distraction can lead to a disconnect from some of our own roots for wellness and compassion as this whole system of nature holds so much calm energy and order.
Illusionary, with real nature shapes dancing in a mystical space we probe the bridge between nature, art, beauty, science and order in our art work and reject chaos as we pivot our philosophy to the beautiful reality that is available to us, by initiating focus on the nature origins of well-being (preventus), contra the origins of disease and risk factors
As our cleaver gardeners and wonderful farmers will attest:
When a flower doesn't bloom, you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower.
(Alexander Den Heijer)... come to the light side now!
Speak through your head
We are raised in a world of Euclidean geometry, unlike the most common natural features we evolved alongside, but now we can fall under nature's spell; a primitive experience made even more immersive with our real nature hybridization artworks allowing us to channel positive energies when stressful tasks like creative thinking, logical problem-solving and other mind pressures are present. A state of calm also heightens our ability to respond with tolerance and compassion. Peace to all.

Patricia's critique: ‘Fractal analysis is a contemporary method of applying non-traditional mathematics to patterns that defy understanding with traditional Euclidean concept’s. Wow!! From this, Sheryl and Sharon’s art will have you considering the serenity you feel in a leafy environment or the moments you spend focused in the repeating patterns or a seashell or snowflake. Their work is inspired by nature's freedom and resembles glorious accidents to entrance the viewer.'
Fracarte appreciates the experienced comments from Patricia the organiser of the Art Fair Stokers Siding provided to help the viewers perceive, interpret, and judge our unique artworks.
Patricia's bio ...'I grew up on a sugar cane farm on the banks of the Tweed River at Tygalgah, Murwillumbah. Mount Warning/ Wollumbin and the glory of the Tweed Valley are seared into my soul. After many years away to study and work in corporate and private business in the fields of art, architecture and heritage conservation I have found my way home.Chris and I met at architecture school, over tracing paper, balsa scale models and the pursuit of ideas. A drawer, surfer and avid art lover.
Our Art Fair at Stokers Siding is the culmination of a life in art and design and the deep desire to bring the works of local artists to the community in the relaxed natural beauty of this landscape that inspires us all.'
Our colours inspiration : "our dreams full of colours
like the dancing hues around a campfire
as settling down it murmurs calling to still,
the soft light dims nature,
mellowing colours reflect mind thoughts
to refocus your own value and worth ... harmony”
