Everflow
2026
48 × 48 inches
Mixed media on canvas
Witch’s Brew marks a turning point in Everflow’s practice—a moment when painting became less about placing the mark and more about discovering what could happen after impact.
A new process began to emerge: striking and hitting the canvas with paint, then drawing the material downward, allowing gravity, movement, instinct and chance to participate in the composition. Instead of controlling every gesture, Everflow began creating the conditions for something unexpected to reveal itself.
And reveal itself it did.
Out of the cascading color came faces. Then more faces. Masks appeared inside figures. Strange creatures emerged from passages of violet and black. Tall flamingo-like forms rose through the composition like exotic guardians while eyes, animals and half-hidden beings seemed to materialize from somewhere beneath the surface.
Many of them were never intentionally painted.
They were discovered.
That is the heart of Witch’s Brew.
The canvas becomes a kind of alchemical vessel—a place where color, movement, imagination and the unconscious are thrown together and allowed to transform one another. Nothing remains entirely what it first appears to be. A drip becomes a body. A body becomes a bird. A shadow becomes a face. One figure contains another, and another.
The title carries a little darkness, a little humor and a great deal of mystery. This is not a literal depiction of witchcraft. The “brew” is the creative act itself: disparate ingredients stirred together until something emerges that could never have been completely planned.
There are echoes of masquerade, tropical celebration, ancient masks and ceremonial figures throughout the work, yet Witch’s Brew belongs to no single mythology. It creates its own.
The longer one stands before it, the more populated it becomes.
That is what makes Witch’s Brew significant within Everflow’s evolution. It captures the moment when he began trusting the canvas to speak back—when accident became collaborator, gravity became a drawing instrument, and the unconscious was given enough freedom to leave its own marks.
The paint was thrown.
The veil was opened.
And the characters came through.
