Art magazine informs about art, design and culture

My name is Hans Werner Schneider, artist name Sanferan.
I was born in West Berlin in 1956, I grew up in Cologne and lived there until 2023. Since April 2023 I have been living in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in Wolde-Japzow. My life always includes art, especially painting and I always find fulfillment for myself.

These artistic and manual tasks for this are an integral part of my life. In my pictures I find opportunities to express feelings, processes and situations in life in my special way. Since the works created, also triggering something with the viewer, and is well received, this confirms my creative ambitions and thus my artistic work.
So I was able to experience success in some exhibitions and through sales to international art collectors, including through the renowned online gallery Singulart.

My work instinctively creates through the idea and intuition. I use color to distract and free the soul of everyday life with harmony but also disharmony. For me, intuition also includes reflection on my life or life in general.
It is also one of my ambitions to delight people away from everyday life, with not everyday life.
"Because as Pablo Picasso said:
Art washes the dust of everyday life off the soul."
