OPENING RECEPTION

Matt Everett

AT THE COLLABORATIVE LAB

Thursday, Sept. 4th from 6-8pm

508 Main Street, Warren

A lifelong dabbler at visual art, I started taking it seriously around 2018. Since then, I’ve been in solo and group exhibits at the Collaborative, AS220, and the Hive RI, and done commission work including pet portraits, posters, album covers, and a journal cover design for the Caliber Artist Series (available for purchase at CVS).

My pictures usually start with a problem or question I’m trying to address (e.g., how big is a bobcat’s nose?), and then veer sideways. I’m heavily influenced by fairy tale and cartoon illustrators, especially Ivan Bilibin and Winsor McCay.

When not drawing I do music stuff: Solo recordings are available via Bandcamp and 75orLess Records, and I play fiddle, accordion, and tin whistle with sea shanty band Sharks Come Cruisin (we’ll be at Imago Gallery in Warren on September 28!).
