This is of the many tree sculptures carved after Hurricane Ike destroyed thousands of trees on the island. “The Geisha” was created by artist James Phillips.

‘The Geisha’ represents the homeowners love for the Orient and is a reminder of many trips to Japan. She is facing west to represent the direction you need to travel to get to Japan.
