My Uncle Theo (my mother Envangalia (Angie's) older brother), lost a leg to infection in his late 20's.

Part of his rehabilitation involved art therapy; although he was a very accomplished artist from a young age.

He painted from memory. Rarely did he paint from nature, or from a photograph or other image.

His memories were "idealistic". This is Theo's impression - a very,very, verdant impression - of his home village of Karavas.
