Tom Everhart

Tom Everhart’s paintings bring Peanuts characters into a fine-art setting, expanding Charles Schulz’s clear, economical line into large-scale compositions. Everhart studied Schulz’s drawing closely, and his work combines the familiar characters with vigorous marks and bright, often unexpected color.

His practice includes paintings on canvas, wood, and paper, as well as lithographs and mixed-media screenprints. In works such as Doggie Dearest, the recognizable character imagery becomes a starting point for movement, scale, and painterly experimentation.
