Butterfly #1 Acrylic on Canvas 24 * 36 1997 Afrika Abney I created Butterfly #1, just upon my college graduation as a message to me transforming from all of the discrimination and stereotypes that I had experienced when I was present during my college years. Rising above all of the hate, pain and suffering that I had experienced. Butterfly #1 is part of a painting series created by Afrika Abney. " A painting series is a collection of paintings that are connected by a common theme or thread. The paintings can be a few or many in number, and each one can stand alone, but together they create a cohesive body of work. The viewer can easily understand what the artist is trying to convey by looking at the series as a whole."
