About The Artist
I continuously look to language, landscape, and other visual message systems to inform my paintings. My process adapts from immediate experience and the ephemeral qualities of time, light, and movement, in which my paintings stand-in as visual explanations of my surroundings, allowing a freedom and uncertainty to exist as the work develops. In each work, a struggle ensues between the insecurity or the temporal nature of existence, and the story-telling ability of paint on canvas.
Everingham holds a BFA from NSCAD University in Halifax, and an MFA from the University of Waterloo, and was a semi-finalist in the 11th and 12th RBC Painting Competitions. He recently won a Canada Council for the Arts Project Grant, and had his work Dear Life purchased by the Canada Council Art Bank. He lives and works in Toronto.
