I love how Feininger can range from straight line compositions to black and soft water colour paintings, or even cartoon designs! Personally, I prefer his straight line near-abstraction paintings because even though they can resemble to some real-life things, we can never know the actual meaning of them!

However, I liked much more the work of Paul Klee. Each of his paintings seems to me a masterpiece. The choice of the figures and the colours used are marvellous; everything just fits in the place! Of course, my favourite must be 'Cat and Bird' (otherwise, my cats will abandon me).

Klee had such a profound effect on me when I was first discovering modern art (pretty much on my own) in high school. He is still a favorite of mine.
