Aurora of the Moon



Aurora of the Moon. Digital art created on canvas. August 15, 2024. Afrika Abney


“The waxing gibbous moon presents a captivating sight in the night sky, as it is illuminated beyond the halfway mark but has not yet reached its full brilliance. This phase of the moon casts a soft, enchanting light that reveals more than fifty percent of its surface, creating a mesmerizing glow that captivates observers and inspires wonder.


In the artwork titled Aurora of the Moon, I focused on the relationship between vibrant colors and the luminous aura surrounding the moon. This abstract digital painting captures the essence of the moon's glow, inviting viewers to explore the dynamic interplay of light and color that defines this celestial body. My fascination with nature serves as a driving force behind the creation of this piece.


For many years,I have drawn inspiration from the wonders of nature, allowing the elements of the environment to influence their creative process. This connection to the natural world is evident in the way the colors and forms in Aurora of the Moon evoke the serene yet powerful presence of the moon in the night sky.

Creative Entertainment

  Quote found on the Internet  “The 1990s marked a transformative era for the entertainment scene in Washington, D.C., where the convergence of political dynamics and cultural expression significantly influenced artistic endeavors. As the capital of the United States, the city served as a vibrant backdrop for political dialogue, which was often reflected in the creative outputs of its artists. Various forms of media, including documentaries, performance art, and literature, emerged as powerful tools for addressing urgent social issues, fostering a deeper engagement with the public and prompting critical discussions on contemporary matters.” I was a student during the 1990s up until the late 1990s.
