Oak Tree Transfiguration

Oak Tree Transfiguration. Digital art created on canvas. September 28, 2024. Afrika Abney

“The oak trees are undergoing a stunning transformation as their leaves shift from a deep hunter green to vibrant shades of red, orange, yellow, and gold-ochre. This seasonal change creates a breathtaking tapestry of colors that signals the arrival of autumn. As the leaves begin to fall, they blanket the ground, providing a rich carpet for the wildlife that thrives in this environment.

Acorns are cascading from the branches, providing a vital food source for the squirrels that scurry about, gathering their winter provisions. The ground beneath the trees is damp and fertile, enriched by the recent rains that have soaked the soil. This moisture not only nourishes the roots of the trees but also supports the diverse ecosystem that flourishes in this wooded area.

Above, the sky is filled with clouds, hinting at the changing weather patterns that accompany the fall season. These clouds create a dramatic backdrop for the colorful foliage, enhancing the beauty of the landscape. As nature prepares for the colder months ahead, the interplay of colors, sounds, and scents in the air serves as a reminder of the cyclical rhythms of life in the forest.”

Life in Black and White through the lens of the artist

Life in Black and White through the lens of the artist captures abstract paintings using black and white paint on paper to resemble how society, community and world divides human beings based on race and excludes them from activities. If we want racism and discrimination to end, we must stop segregating and racial inequity. I have created several paintings using only black and white colors to express how I have been impacted by racial profiling. When I mix both colors together, they make the color gray.  "Black isn't a primary, secondary, or tertiary color. In fact, black isn't on the color wheel because it isn't considered a color. It's all colors. Or rather, the absorption of all colors. Black absorbs all light in the color spectrum." "White is clean, simple, and pure. It stands in stark opposition to black, and its meanings are unequivocal. As white light contains all the colors of the spectrum, it’s an inclusive, impartial color, favoring no single ...
