The colouring of Kahiani’s paintings is deep and multi-layered. It is woven of an infinite number of hues and filled with light. His landscape paintings are no less fantastical than his figure compositions. Kahiani employs his immense talent toward the fulfilling of his mission – “to make the world more beautiful and gentle than it is in reality.”
