I have no clue what you are discussing. What I do know is that in 1985, I was a student at NationHouse and I do not have anything to be ashamed about. Nor do I have regrets. This is what happens when you do not ask questions when you see me. It is no longer the past. It is almost November 2024.

Affection

  Affection manifests in various forms, including physical touch, verbal expressions, and acts of kindness, all of which serve to strengthen interpersonal bonds. “Research has shown that affectionate interactions can lead to increased levels of happiness and reduced stress. When people engage in affectionate behaviors, such as hugging, complementing, or simply spending quality time together, they release oxytocin, often referred to as the "love hormone." This biochemical response not only enhances feelings of closeness but also promotes trust and empathy among individuals, thereby enriching their relationships and overall life satisfaction.” The color associated with affection is red.  Red Embrace.

Afrika Abney  With the principle of faith, I am fortunate that I graduated from Bell Multicultural High School in 1993 because I felt alone, depressed, traumatized, isolated and discriminated against every time that I stepped inside the school from 1991 - 1993. The colors gold and shades of yellow are deliberately selected to depict optimism, while black represents faith.

Skyward Harmony

Skyward Harmony. Digital art created on canvas. August 15, 2024. Afrika Abney Looking out from my window, I was greeted by clouds drifting lazily across the sky, while a solitary bird soared gracefully above. The scene sparked a wave of inspiration within me, prompting me to reach for my digital palette. I carefully chose a variety of blue hues, blending them with soft whites to capture the essence of the sky and the fleeting beauty of the bird in flight. With each stroke of my virtual brush, I began to translate the atmospheric beauty before me onto my digital canvas. The cool blues danced harmoniously with the gentle whites, creating a sense of depth and movement that mirrored the clouds and the bird's elegant trajectory.

Wellspring of Inspiration

  Wellspring of Inspiration. Digital art created on canvas. August 15, 2024. Afrika Abney My home workspace serves as a wellspring of inspiration, fueling my artistic endeavors. Surrounded by the familiar comforts of my environment, I immerse myself in the creative process, allowing the world outside to influence my work. The beauty of the sky, particularly the enchanting phases of the Waxing Gibbous moon, captivates my imagination and often finds its way into my art. Each glance out the window reveals a canvas of shifting colors and textures that spark new ideas and concepts. The symphony of nature plays a crucial role in my creative journey.
