Carlos Fernandez

Carlos Fdez, known by his artist name thepenrider, only started drawing at the age of 30. But this new passion soon took up a large part of his energy. In a very short time, he developed into a master of pencil drawing, a technique that allows him to depict his mysterious and often introspective world with precision and depth.

Under the pseudonym thepenrider, Carlos Fdez creates works of art that are characterized by the creation of mysterious atmospheres. With fine strokes and shading, he captures concepts, dreams and feelings that often have a deeper meaning - but sometimes are simply spontaneous ideas that he puts on paper. This intuitive approach allows him to create a direct connection to his innermost thoughts and feelings and express them immediately.

Another characteristic feature of his work are the fragments of small stories with an open ending. This narrative component invites viewers to use their own imagination and continue to spin the story in their heads. Through this interactive method, each viewer becomes part of the creative process, adding an extra dimension to the drawings.

Carlos Fdez's artistic process is multifaceted and varies from work to work. Sometimes his works arise from a fleeting thought that suddenly strikes him, sometimes they are well thought-out concepts that develop gradually. This flexibility and openness to different approaches allows him to keep his art fresh and lively at all times.

His pencil drawings are therefore not only an expression of his technical skills, but also a window into a mysterious, often dreamlike world in which reality and fantasy merge. As thepenrider, Carlos Fdez has found a unique voice in the art world that continues to captivate his viewers.
