Notes

Abstract:

Postcard of a typical Florida home with beautifully landscaped lawns, flowerbeds, palm trees, ixora, and walkway. The red roofs, the green palms, the blue awnings, the white walls, the ivory shutters, the orange chimney, the purple foliage saturated with black tone, and the flaming ixora. Through the boldness, intensity, and contrast of colors, a tropical Florida home stands out of the postcard filled with warmth, vitality, and passion.
