African-American Artists
by Afrika Midnight Asha Abney
 
African-American Artists in today's society are built around inspiration, motivation and economics. Some of us of here to educate, empower and rebuild the principle of unity. I believe that we most create our own community and definition of understanding the ethnics of promoting, marketing and expanding the branding tools. As an African-American artist, I am here to inform you about myself and my work which means to share information and reach out my community.
 
Their are many people who are a mere bad judge of creator and does not understand one's mission for conveying a creative message.
 
I am all of about moving through an energy that depicts substance, value and appreciation. If you do not understand African-American artists, then you will never be able to appreciate what we have to offer to society.
 
I, as an African-American artist, ask that you WAKE UP and start to finding out about our mission and purpose for being on platforms!!!!
 
STOP HATING! START APPRECIATING OUR WORK!
 
Additionally, feel free to check this video out! Enjoy!

Painting Abstracts: Artist Techniques

by Afrika Midnight Asha Abney

 

Painting abstracts are natural for me. I begin painting abstracts by first placing the paint onto the canvas with either brush or touch of my fingers which gives me the freedom to release my mind. I do not use a palette. Instead, I rather explore the possibilities that the paint has by letting the paint come directly from the tube onto the surface. In painting abstracts, I use the concept of color, tone, space, strength, energy, rhythm, imagination and sensual sensation.

Developing Collages

Developing collages are very easy and natural for me. As I begin to develop each collage that I create. I first begin by laying out the materials that I will use for creating each collage which consists of paper, canvas, glue and old abstract finger paintings. Then, I apply glue on the old abstract finger paintings and begin to apply it on the surface that I will use in a strategic matter.

 

Each collage that I develop revolves around my heritage, culture, traditions and is full of energy, sensation and power.

 

None of the collages that I developed began with a preliminary sketch. I develop each of them with pure imagination and inspiration from spirit from beginning to end. It usually will take me between one day or weeks to complete the collage. The end result usually is different in each collage that I develop.
