Timeless Connections

I find that dating applications do not align with my personal preferences. As a traditional single woman who identifies as straight and is over the age of 30, I hold the belief that utilizing such platforms to seek companionship is not a suitable approach for attracting a single man within the same age bracket.

I strongly believe in forming lasting romantic and committed relationships with someone of the opposite sex. I prefer meaningful interactions over casual encounters.

Simple White

The necessity for acquiring whiteboards has diminished for me, as I ceased offering educational services back in 2018. Since that time, my focus has shifted entirely. I have been working on my branding and digital art where I utilize various digital applications to express my creativity.

The color white encourages a harmonious balance between creativity and tranquility.”

DC Color Narrative. Digital art created on canvas. September 16, 2024. Afrika Abney “The color palette of black, purple, and yellow serves as the foundation for my digital abstract artwork. My academic journey culminated in graduation in 1997, during which I explored a diverse array of subjects. Despite my extensive studies, digital art was not included in my curriculum. It wasn't until 2009 that I ventured into the realm of digital artistry. The colors I have selected for my artwork are not merely aesthetic choices; they are deeply intertwined with my identity.

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.
