With each piece, look behind or around the colors...watch the color move and blend with the next color. There are layers of color in each painting that together bring harmony and thought-provoking emotions between the intricacies and foibles of the human mind. These are the works of art by Almas Kabani. Her passion for music, dance, art and theater from a very early stage in her life fueled her creativity for all things artistic. Almas was born in Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania and grew up on the beautiful shores of the Indian Ocean. She spent time between the mainland and Zanzibar, where her family, who was of Indian descent, had lived for four generations. A few years after graduating and returning home, her native country became socialist. She and her husband moved to the United States to make the United States of America their home. Today she devotes most of her time to art, bringing all her inspiration and emotional expression to the canvas. Painting is her passion, her challenge to experiment with colors and always being amazed and amazed by the results.

Artist Max Werner puts emphasis on details. Many of his landscapes have a calm, classical character. The compositions often show open composition with a purposeful accent. His works of art appear minimalist and at the same time very defined. In his graphic work he places great emphasis on the philosophical elaboration of the entire work. There are several accents here. The entire work of art looks like a long story that communicates with the viewer. Max Werner combines European and American perspectives in his artwork. Influenced by his European origins combined with his life in the United States, a special talent is felt in his work. He manages to calmness, light to put a selection of compositions into a special representation. Despite the minimalistic implementation at first glance, you can find many subtle details. In some works, the artist defends philosophical problems that indicate communication between people and nature, as well as between people.
