Montreal-born Charles Carson has invented a new painting method, called by historian and critic art the <<carsonism>> This avid nature lover and dedicated environmentalist has an unusual artistic talent. He shows us nature ''filtered through imagination and originality'' and ennobles his subjects until they are completely sublimated. He bathes them in a luminous, tinted haze and brings out their very essence, giving them a multidimensional appearance. His landscapes are rendered as stunning universes of vibrant colour.

Born in Montreal, Charles Carson created a fascinating technique that has come to be known as ''carsonism'' Carson is not only a creative genius; above all else, he is a lover of nature and a great defender of the environment. He reproduces nature with unrestrained imagination. His is a very personal vision. He interprets and sublimates his models, suffusing them with light and colour so that they appear multidimensional. Sounds and colours blend subtly in his work; and the universe, from the depths of sea to the firmament, appears in its many seductive aspects.

Édition Utilus

Montrealer Charles Carson, creator of ''carsonism'', is first and foremost a lover of nature - not nature as it is, or as it is found in the ''dictionary'' to quote the great Delacroix, but rather nature passed through the filter of imagination and originality. He belongs to that race of creative artists who interpret the model in their own manner, using it to sublimate and celebrate and to give it their personal vision.

Édition Utilus

Born in Quebec City in 1957, Charles Carson would prefer to let his paintings speak for themselves. He doesn't like to talk about himself, and doesn't understand why a true collector would be interested in his childhood, or his emotional life. While the actor, like the singer, dancer or conductor, must give himself completely to his public, the painter, on the other hand, is not a public entertainer. Carson believes that only his material should speak for him, that his painting should be able to reveal his thoughts, his emotions and his dreams. He is only interested in seeing his paintings, which are the product of his search, his work, his joys and his sorrows, bring light and vitality into every home.
