2022

I was on an assignment for a photography class and told to take 20 or so pictures in 15 minutes in the streets outside the class. I asked a woman who worked in a Chinese restaurant if I could take her picture, and she graciously consented. Fifteen or so years later my interests had shifted from conventional digital photography to abstract digital art. I stumbled across the picture of the woman and started to work with it. I added as layers a range of flowers to adorn her hair and ears, then I created a kaleidoscope image based on the colors of the flower as a background. Gradually this picture took form.
