Blue Essence

 

Blue Essence. Digital art created on canvas. August 15, 2024. Afrika Abney


In the process of crafting my digital abstract painting in soft blues, I immersed myself entirely in the present moment. While I may have touched upon my previous educational background and professional experiences, my primary attention was directed towards the current projects and services I am passionately engaged in. This painting became a reflection of my current state of mind, allowing me to channel my creativity without the distractions of past achievements.


As I embarked on the journey of creating my soft blues digital abstract artwork, my concentration was firmly anchored in the here and now. Although I occasionally reference my past educational and professional endeavors, they serve merely as a backdrop to the vibrant energy of my current artistic pursuits. This focus on the present not only enhances my creative process but also infuses my work with a sense of immediacy and relevance that resonates deeply with my audience.


The creation of my soft blues digital abstract painting was an exercise in present-mindedness, where I chose to prioritize my current artistic vision over any reflections on my past. While I have shared snippets of my educational and professional history, they are secondary to the dynamic projects and services I am currently developing. This approach allows me to fully engage with my art, ensuring that each brushstroke and color choice is a true representation of my present inspirations.

Multicultural literature

  Quote found on the Internet  “Multicultural literature encompasses a diverse range of literary works that reflect the varied cultural backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives of different ethnic and social groups.

The exploration of human experiences within the context of abstract art

  Quote found on the Internet “The exploration of human experiences within the context of abstract art reveals a profound interplay between emotion and perception. Abstract art, characterized by its departure from representational forms, invites viewers to engage with their own feelings and interpretations. This genre transcends traditional boundaries, allowing individuals to connect with the artwork on a personal level, often evoking a range of responses that are deeply rooted in their own life experiences. The absence of recognizable subjects encourages a more introspective approach, prompting viewers to reflect on their emotions and thoughts as they navigate the vibrant colors, shapes, and textures presented before them.”
