Diverse




Diverse. Digital art created on canvas. August 2, 2024. Afrika Abney


"Diverse" is not just a painting; it is an expression of individuality and creativity, encapsulated on a digital canvas. The choice of purple as the dominant color symbolizes creativity, mystery, and spirituality.


Each stroke is imbued with emotion, reflecting the complexity of human existence and the myriad of stories that intertwine within it. The digital canvas allows for a unique interplay of texture and color, enhancing the overall impact of the artwork. As viewers engage with the piece, they are encouraged to reflect on their own journeys and the vibrant tapestry of life that surrounds them.


I have successfully designed and coordinated diverse educational and arts programs for both adults and children, bringing creativity to life in meaningful ways. My artistic contributions have been showcased on brochures and book covers, and I've actively managed popular arts events, community festivals, and workshops. With a knack for securing funding, I've researched and written successful grant proposals, earning multiple grants from the D.C. Commission on the Arts and Humanities.I have participated in esteemed competitions like the Congressional Art Competition.


“A diverse workplace is an inclusive environment that provides equal rights and opportunities for all workers, regardless of gender, color, age, ethnicity, physical ability, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, and so on.”

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.
