This is a painting inspired on a Charles Baudelaire poem named Autumn sonnet. I decided to make this painting after reading this poem on Flowers of Evil, a reference book on XIX century to the Damned poets. -Your eyes, clear as crystal, ask me: ‘Strange lover, what do I mean to you?’- Hush, and be charming! My heart, irritated by all but the one thing, the primitive creature’s absolute candour, is unwilling to show its infernal secret to you, cradler whose hand invites to deep slumber, and its black inscription written in fire, I hate passion, the spirit sickens me too! Let us love gently. Love in hiding, discreet, in shadowy ambush, bends his fatal bow. The weapons of his ancient arsenal I know: Crime, horror, madness! – My pale marguerite! are you not, as I am, an autumn sun though, O my so white, my so cold Marguerite?- I invite you to read Charles Baudelaire' books, they are very dreamy and inspiring. I normally use acrylics on all my artworks due to easiness to work with and less use to chemical mediums just to respect the environtment.

Spain
Carlos Ferg (1977) is a Spanish artist who has lived for ten years in Manchester (United Kingdom), where he established his studio and from where he began his artistic career. Currently he has moved his studio to Valencia, Spain. After residing in various cities in Spain for part of his childhood and adolescence, he graduated in Art History (Spain, 2001). Later, he moved to Madrid, without pursuing an artistic career, and although he always liked drawing, he wanted to take painting classes, a step beyond the simple application of drawing on paper. While working in different fields away from the creative environment, he maintained the habit of visiting museums, something that maintained his connection with the artistic environment. After ten years living in Madrid, and due to personal circumstances, he began a process of learning pictorial techniques on his own, researching and developing his own style, first through the medium considered essential throughout history, the oil technique. During this stage he became very interested in the work of Velázquez and, fundamentally, in Sorolla's study of volume and light. At that time, he had the opportunity to move to the United Kingdom and the opportunity to explore and learn new mixed media such as pastel, acrylic, watercolor, etc., in addition to receiving new artistic and pictorial influences especially from British artists of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It is in 2015, when he decides to develop a more solid project that will lead him to configure his own work, promoting his personal style in terms of technique and content. He is currently developing a figurative project, based on an update of the works of Symbolism, a movement that had its greatest impact at the end of the 19th century and that was intrinsically linked to the literary movement developed in Paris, as its epicenter and that was spreading. to the rest of Europe and influencing the other arts in a notorious way. Hence, writers such as Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Mallarmé, Verlaine, Poe, etc. stand out, who formed the nucleus of the group that would become known as The Damned poets.
