The act of blogging

Blogging has been a crucial part of my career journey since I started as a consultant at 15. I realized the importance of sharing my insights with a wider audience, leading me to start my own blog in 2017. The act of blogging has significantly enriched my professional life and through this platform, I have the opportunity to explore various subjects related to consulting, while also receiving feedback and engaging in dialogue with my readers. This interaction not only enhances my understanding of the topics I cover but also inspires me to continue evolving as a consultant and a writer, ensuring that my contributions remain relevant and impactful.

Radiant Passage

The past is now behind me, and since my enrollment at NationHouse in 1978, I have had the opportunity to explore numerous locations within my hometown. This journey has allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of the community and its rich history. Each place I visited has contributed to my personal growth and appreciation for the environment that shaped my early years. Reflecting on my experiences, I realize that the time I spent at NationHouse starting in 1978 opened doors to various adventures throughout my hometown. These explorations have not only enriched my knowledge of local culture but have also fostered a sense of connection to the people and places that define my roots. The memories created during these travels are invaluable, as they have helped me forge a stronger identity. As I look back, I acknowledge that my journey since joining NationHouse in 1978 has been transformative. The many places I have visited in my hometown have left a lasting impression on me, shaping my ...

Vibrant Visions of Faith

Vibrant Visions of Faith. Digital art created on canvas. November 26, 2024. Afrika Abney With the principle of faith, I am fortunate that I graduated from Bell Multicultural High School in 1993 because I felt alone, depressed, traumatized, isolated and discriminated against every time that I stepped inside the school from 1991 - 1993. The colors gold and shades of yellow are deliberately selected to depict optimism, while black represents faith.

Skyward Harmony

Skyward Harmony. Digital art created on canvas. August 15, 2024. Afrika Abney Looking out from my window, I was greeted by clouds drifting lazily across the sky, while a solitary bird soared gracefully above. The scene sparked a wave of inspiration within me, prompting me to reach for my digital palette. I carefully chose a variety of blue hues, blending them with soft whites to capture the essence of the sky and the fleeting beauty of the bird in flight. With each stroke of my virtual brush, I began to translate the atmospheric beauty before me onto my digital canvas. The cool blues danced harmoniously with the gentle whites, creating a sense of depth and movement that mirrored the clouds and the bird's elegant trajectory.

Wellspring of Inspiration

Wellspring of Inspiration. Digital art created on canvas. August 15, 2024. Afrika Abney My home workspace serves as a wellspring of inspiration, fueling my artistic endeavors. Surrounded by the familiar comforts of my environment, I immerse myself in the creative process, allowing the world outside to influence my work. The beauty of the sky, particularly the enchanting phases of the Waxing Gibbous moon, captivates my imagination and often finds its way into my art. Each glance out the window reveals a canvas of shifting colors and textures that spark new ideas and concepts. The symphony of nature plays a crucial role in my creative journey. As I sit at my desk, the gentle sounds of birds chirping and crickets create a soothing backdrop that enhances my focus. These natural melodies not only provide a sense of tranquility but also inspire me to explore themes of harmony and connection in my artwork. The interplay of light and sound outside my window becomes a source of motivation...
