Authentic Connections

 

Authentic Connections. Digital art created on canvas. November 6, 2024. Afrika Abney 



I hold no regrets regarding my experiences, whether they pertain to my relationships with men or the various services and opportunities I have encountered along the way. My journey has been shaped by these interactions, and I appreciate the lessons learned from each one. I am a single African - American woman who is not dating. If you are interested in dating me and a single man and at a standard male appearance and over the age of 30, you must meet my personal values and goals.


Throughout my experiences, I have encountered individuals who have chosen to part ways with me, or I have made the decision to end certain relationships myself. This process has been enlightening, allowing me to reflect on the qualities that are essential to me in any partnership. Trust, commitment, and respect are fundamental values that I prioritize, and I believe that a healthy relationship must be built on these principles.


 I remain steadfast in my commitment to uphold these values. I recognize that not every relationship will meet these standards, and I am willing to let go of those that do not serve my well-being. By doing so, I am creating space for more meaningful connections that resonate with my ideals and aspirations.If you are interested in reconciling your previous connection with me, you must be honest from the beginning and no tricks.

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...

Unity in Motion

    “Unity in Motion emphasizes the importance of inclusivity and collaboration within the arts community, promoting a sense of togetherness. During my time at various art institutions, I encountered instances of racism and discrimination. These experiences were disheartening and highlighted the challenges faced within the visual art and dance community. Additionally, I faced issues with timely payment from several organizations, which further complicated my professional engagements. Despite my commitment to providing high-quality services, there were instances where payments were delayed or not received at all and raised concerns about the professionalism of the organizations involved. It is important to note that throughout my interactions with these companies, I did not render any services since I was last hired. The combination of discriminatory experiences, financial inconsistencies, and a lack of engagement from certain organizations highlights the importance for improve...
