This book is the brainchild of the artist who lived in Greece for ten years. They shuttled between the mainland and the islands of Greece, exploring nature and culture. They used brushes and words to capture the unknown beauty of this land. Their delicate brushstrokes vividly reproduced the patterns of butterflies and the texture of olive groves. The textures, the light and shadow of the hillsides, the vivid words and stories outline the essence of Greek life and reveal a deep concern for the threats to the natural environment.
Every page in the book is filled with love and concern for Greece. It is both a tribute to nature and a reflection on change, whether it is describing the colors of injured hillsides such as scars that are difficult to heal, or the story of an old woman who has no choice but to leave her home. The stories and these emotions are deeply touching.
