In 2009 I moved to Scotland where I had to adapt myself to a new and different setting.

I quickly developed a special bond with this country and keeping the Scottish landscape painting tradition in mind, I tried using a modern approach. I resolved to mix landscapes, drawings and self penned texts in English that I was composing while walking (see Life, Words and Coinci­dences in the page Texts).

The Scottish diary was an attempt to translate the subconscious and strong emotions I was experiencing there.
