Dynamic and dedicated visual artist with over 30 years of experience, starting my artistic journey at age five. Trained at prestigious institutions such as the Capitol Hill Arts Workshop and the Corcoran, I have developed a strong proficiency in abstract art and have made significant contributions through exhibitions at renowned venues like The Phillips Collection and the Corcoran Gallery of Art. My career highlights include national recognition in the Congressional Art Competition and a robust portfolio of workshops and advocacy for art's transformative power. As a professional visual artist and consultant, I empower organizations—from small businesses to non-profits—by fostering meaningful connections and developing innovative campaigns to effectively engage audiences. I prioritize building honest relationships through creative strategies, ensuring success in every project I undertake.
March is Women's History Month and I have had the opportunity to have one of my abstract paintings featured on a book cover. The book is entitled: Kaleidoscope: Women of Color Reflecting on Life. Summer Blossoms. Acrylic on Canvas. 14 * 18. Afrika Abney Summer Blossoms, abstract finger painting created on canvas using colors that represent the Summer.
