Description
Digital abstract rendering of a tiny sago palm found brown and lifeless in a field of dead grass, in what used to be someone's front yard. It was found in the devastated beachfront community of Surfside, Texas, several months after Hurricane Ike in 2008. Experimenting with what seemed to be a hopelessly ugly photo, though sharp and well-shot, I applied a neon glow filter and accented edges to turn what was originally brown and beige to an abstract green image on a golden yellow background. One photographer who understood this image, and the story behind it, said she could see it as a framed print in a Florida mansion.
