Sleepy Sky

Sleepy Sky draws inspiration from the soothing hue of light blue, which is closely associated with the vastness of the sky. This particular shade is not merely a visual element; it embodies a psychological effect that has been the subject of various studies. Research indicates that “light blue can significantly enhance feelings of serenity and peace, creating an environment conducive to relaxation and restful sleep.”

The choice of light blue in Sleepy Sky is intentional, as it reflects the natural beauty of the sky while also promoting a calming atmosphere. “The psychological impact of this color is profound, as it has been shown to lower stress levels and induce a sense of tranquility.”

Multicultural Essence

Multicultural Essence. Digital art created on canvas. August 22, 2024. Afrika Abney Between 14 and 16, I attended a high school characterized by its multicultural environment, which provided me with the opportunity to engage with a wide array of cultural backgrounds. This experience marked a significant shift in my educational journey, as I had previously been enrolled in a private Afrocentric institution from 1978 to 1991. The contrast between these two educational settings was profound, as the multicultural high school introduced me to perspectives and traditions that were vastly different from those I had encountered in my earlier schooling. In my abstract digital artwork,Multicultural Essence, I incorporate a palette that includes white, black, brown ochre, and raw umber. These colors are not merely aesthetic choices; they serve to convey deeper meanings and emotions within the piece. The interplay of these hues allows for a rich exploration of themes such as identity, heritage, ...

Abstract Insights

Abstract Insights. Digital art created on canvas. August 22, 2024. Afrika Abney “Abstract art often transcends traditional representation, allowing for a more visceral experience that resonates with viewers on a personal level. The use of color, form, and texture in abstract works can evoke a wide range of emotions, from joy and serenity to confusion and melancholy, inviting the audience to engage with the piece in a deeply subjective manner. The communal aspect of abstract art highlights its power not only as a form of personal expression but also as a catalyst for emotional dialogue, bridging gaps between diverse perspectives and fostering empathy.” Abstract Insights Consulting: https://abneyartist.blogspot.com/2024/08/abstract-insights-consulting.html
