Creative Integrity

Creative Integrity. Digital art created on canvas. October 3, 2024. Afrika Abney According to my research, “shades of blue have many symbols. Light blue instills principles such as tranquility and understanding, both are crucial in the creation of art. Whereas, medium blue instills principles such as trust, creativity, calm and importance. Each of these aspects are significant in understanding the elements for creativity and the ability to trust that the final product will lead to successful results. Lastly, dark blue instills integrity which lies in the concept of doing the right thing.” I chose shades of blue to create my digital abstract painting because of the symbolism and the harmony between each shade. Creative Integrity depicts the importance of ensuring that I have presented the right message behind my digital abstract painting using a comprehensive creative process and method.

Rain Tones

Rain Tones. Digital art created on canvas. September 16, 2024. Afrika Abney “The colors of rain, while often perceived as simply colorless, actually encompass a spectrum of grays, from the palest dove gray to a steely, almost charcoal hue. This subtle palette is dictated by the light interacting with the water droplets and the surrounding atmosphere. And speaking of rain, the forecast for this week is decidedly wet. Painting the landscape in shades of gray, from the soft mist of a drizzle to the heavier, more dramatic washes of a downpour. It's a reminder that even in the absence of vibrant hues, there's an inherent beauty in the simplicity of rain's muted tones.”
