Routine of Colors. Digital art created on canvas. August 13, 2024. Afrika Abney 


In the creation of my digital abstract painting titled Routine of Colors, I draw upon a palette of colors that frequently appear in my artwork, including vibrant shades like red, blue, white, yellow, yellow-green, and purple. Each hue plays a significant role in expressing the emotions and themes I wish to convey, allowing me to explore the interplay of color and form in a unique digital landscape. This piece serves as a reflection of my artistic journey, where these colors not only represent my aesthetic preferences but also embody the essence of my creative spirit.


My routine is meticulously crafted around my love for digital art, where I engage with various software tools to transform my imaginative ideas into tangible creations. This process is not merely about the act of painting; it involves a deep dive into research that fuels my inspiration and broadens my artistic horizons. The gentle sounds of nature that drift through my workspace create a serene atmosphere, enabling me to concentrate fully on my projects and immerse myself in the creative flow without the distractions of the outside world.


With a packed schedule that leaves little room for distractions, I find myself deeply involved in numerous artistic endeavors, each requiring my full attention and innovative thinking. The services I provide demand a considerable investment of time and dedication, and I take immense pride in the quality of my work. As I navigate through my busy day, I extend my wishes for your safety and well-being, hoping that you too find fulfillment and tranquility in your pursuits. May your day be enriched with positivity and purpose, mirroring the creativity and meaningful engagement I strive to cultivate in my own life.

This lively color radiates a spirited energy that can stimulate innovative thought and foster a positive perspective on life.

Insightful Discussions

  Quote found on the Internet  “Eleanor Roosevelt once articulated a profound observation regarding the nature of intellectual discourse. She suggested that the most insightful individuals engage in conversations centered around ideas, exploring concepts that can inspire change and innovation. This perspective emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and the pursuit of knowledge, encouraging individuals to elevate their discussions beyond the mundane and to focus on the transformative power of ideas. In contrast, Roosevelt pointed out that those with a more conventional mindset tend to focus their discussions on events. This approach, while still valuable, often limits the scope of conversation to what is happening in the world around us, rather than delving into the underlying principles or philosophies that drive those events. By concentrating on occurrences, average minds may miss the opportunity to analyze the implications and lessons that can be drawn from them, the...

Respect Spectrum

  Respect Spectrum. Digital art created on canvas. September 18, 2024. Afrika Abney “The concept of Respect Spectrum encompasses a diverse array of colors, specifically shades of pink, purple, and blue. The Respect Spectrum is a multifaceted concept that incorporates a variety of colors, particularly emphasizing shades of pink, purple, and blue. Each of these colors is imbued with distinct meanings and cultural associations that contribute to the overarching theme of respect. Pink is often seen as a gentle and nurturing color, evoking feelings of compassion and understanding, which can foster an atmosphere of respect in interpersonal relationships. Purple, historically associated with royalty and nobility, conveys a sense of dignity and honor, making it a powerful color in contexts where respect is paramount. Blue, on the other hand, is commonly associated with trust and reliability, qualities that are essential in establishing and maintaining respectful interactions.”

Dark chocolate

  “The color is a deep, rich shade of brown that resembles the hue of dark chocolate or freshly brewed coffee, evoking a sense of warmth and earthiness. The representation of dark chocolate within the realm of abstract painting serves as a fascinating exploration of color, texture, and form. Artists often utilize the rich, deep hues associated with dark chocolate to evoke a sense of indulgence and sophistication, while the fluidity of abstract techniques allows for a dynamic interpretation of its essence. Through the interplay of bold brushstrokes and layered compositions, the visual experience can mimic the complexity of dark chocolate's flavor profile, inviting viewers to engage with the artwork on both an emotional and sensory level. This artistic approach not only highlights the aesthetic qualities of dark chocolate but also encourages a deeper contemplation of its cultural significance and the sensory pleasures it embodies.”

Restful Blue

  I woke from my restful sleep several hours ago. I chose various shades of blue using paintapp.  This choice was not arbitrary; I aimed to explore the calming and inspiring qualities that different shades of blue can evoke. Restful Blue is a solid blue background designed for creativity.  When examining Restful Blue, one can see hints of purple within this shade of blue. 

Awareness Revolution

Awareness Revolution. Digital art created on canvas. September 25, 2024. Afrika Abney “The significant societal transformations that have emerged in response to issues of racism and discrimination, particularly concerning the Black community. This awareness serves as a catalyst for discussions surrounding systemic inequalities and the historical context that has shaped the experiences of Black individuals in the nation’s capital. By fostering a deeper understanding of these societal changes, the movement aims to address the persistent challenges faced by marginalized groups and promote a more equitable society. In recent years, Washington, D.C., has witnessed a growing consciousness regarding the impact of racism and discrimination on the Black population. This heightened awareness has prompted various initiatives and movements aimed at dismantling systemic barriers and advocating for social justice. As communities come together to confront these issues, there is a collective effort to...
