Working for ‘Peanuts’
Tom Everhart redefines the nature of comic-strip art
Artist Tom Everhart has a way of forcing even the most committed Peanuts fan see Charlie Brown’s zig-zag shirt in ways that defy the simplicity of the Sunday funnies. “It’s how the line works against other lines within a pictorial space,” Everhart says of the drawings of the legendary cartoonist Charles Schulz. “It’s how he creates human emotion just through bits and pieces of lines. He’s not doing crosshatching or heavy etching work like you’d see in the Renaissance. But if you go back and look at one of his strips and don’t read a word, you can still feel all the emotions if you look carefully.” Continued on page 3 Artist Tom Everhart in the creative process. He visits Denver Oct.15-16.
