 In my digital artwork, I incorporated the vibrant hue of orange, a color that embodies a multitude of personality traits. Among these traits, I find that I resonate with being generous, optimistic, and creative. The choice of orange in my creations is not merely aesthetic; it reflects my own character and outlook on life. This bold color choice serves as a visual representation of my inner self, showcasing the warmth and enthusiasm I bring to my artistic endeavors.


When I embrace the color orange, I make it clear that I prefer direct communication. I do not engage in passive listening or eavesdropping on conversations around me. If someone wishes to connect or share their thoughts, I encourage them to reach out to me directly. This approach not only fosters clarity in communication but also allows me to focus on my own projects and passions without distraction. I believe that meaningful interactions stem from direct engagement rather than indirect exchanges.


My commitment to the color orange also signifies my dedication to pursuing my own path. I am not particularly interested in the activities or conversations of others, as my focus remains firmly on my own journey. By minding my own business and immersing myself in my creative process, I cultivate an environment where my ideas can flourish. This self-directed approach not only enhances my artistic expression but also reinforces my belief in the importance of individuality as I am an African - American female.

Blank Canvas

  In my digital abstract paintings, I integrate a variety of elements such as vivid colors, intricate brushstrokes, and a diverse array of lines, shapes, and patterns. Each of these components plays a crucial role in the overall composition, contributing to the dynamic visual experience that characterizes my work. However, prior to embarking on the creation of each piece, I take a moment to closely analyze the textured blank canvas that serves as my starting point.

The Industry of Politics

  Quote found on the Internet  “The political landscape of Washington, D.C. in 1985 was characterized by a complex interplay of power dynamics, policy debates, and significant events that shaped the trajectory of American governance. This period was marked by the presidency of Ronald Reagan, whose administration was focused on conservative economic policies, a strong anti-communist stance, and a commitment to reducing the size of government. The political atmosphere was charged with discussions surrounding tax cuts, deregulation, and a robust military buildup, all of which were central to Reagan's vision of revitalizing the American economy and asserting its influence on the global stage. Moreover, the social movements of the 1980s, including those advocating for civil rights, women's rights, and environmental protection, were gaining momentum and influencing political discourse. Activism was on the rise, with grassroots organizations mobilizing citizens to engage in the polit...

Tranquil Inspiration

  “In the realm of color psychology, blue-green is recognized for its ability to enhance creative processes. This vibrant yet soothing color can evoke feelings of serenity while simultaneously igniting a spark of imagination. In abstract painting, the use of solid colors as a background plays a crucial role in establishing the overall mood and tone of the artwork. These uniform hues can create a sense of depth and dimension, allowing the viewer to focus on the interplay of shapes and forms that emerge from the foreground. By employing solid colors, artists can evoke specific emotions or themes, guiding the audience's interpretation and engagement with the piece. The simplicity of a solid color backdrop can also serve to enhance the complexity of the abstract elements layered on top, creating a striking visual contrast that draws the eye. Ultimately, solid colors in the background contribute significantly to the narrative and aesthetic quality of abstract art, allowing for a rich ex...
