Everett Spruill’s collage “Me and Dad” is a vibrant and heartfelt depiction of a personal relationship. The artwork features two central figures, the artist and his father, rendered in abstract geometric shapes and bold colors. The figures are depicted with obscured facial features, emphasizing the emotional connection over physical likeness.

The dynamic composition of colors and shapes creates a harmonious relationship between the figures and the surrounding space, suggesting interaction and connection. The use of vibrant hues and patterns conveys a sense of warmth and affection, capturing the essence of the bond between parent and child.

This collage is a beautiful representation of familial love and the deep, often unspoken, connections that define such relationships. Through abstract forms and expressive colors, Spruill invites viewers to reflect on their own relationships and the emotions they evoke.

An African American painter, photographer, and print-maker. Born Birmingham, Alabama USA. Everett Spruill attended Berea College, where he majored in Business. It was during this time that he painted watercolor paintings of landscapes and portraits in the tradition of the French Impressionist, but did not seriously entertain the idea of a career in the arts. While managing a Hotel in Miami, and with frequent visits to the Miami Museum, a Picasso exhibition changed his outlook as he was inspired by the simplicity and geometric patterns that formed the images. After relocating to Orlando, Spruill took up painting seriously and it was at this time that he created The "Old School Jazz and Blues" series of paintings and collages, inspired by the art of Romare Bearden. From that time on Spruill consistently created increasingly complex variations of art from recycled and re-purposed materials focusing on Jazz as a central theme. Spruill constantly challenges himself to source new materials and expand his resources. His first radical shift came in 1999, with the "Tribal Rhythms Series" in which he employs interlocking geometric shapes combined with graffiti techniques. It was around this time as well that he created his first prints in screen printing, linoleum cuts, and offset lithography. During the following decade, Spruill introduced texture into his art, which he came to call "Nuvo-stained glass" for its transparent qualities. From the mid-1990s to 2010, Spruill created a large body of work that responded in a general way to the childlike simplicity of creating art.  During this time, the increasingly abstract collages of Spruill's paintings gave way to a multitude of materials from electronic components, textiles, recycled wallpaper, and decorative architectural elements. To create these works, the artist uses recycled and repurposed materials and digital technologies. In 2017, Spruill began making wire sculptures and developing architectural projects. Still residing in Orlando Florida with his many accolades, Everett's prints and paintings are most famous for his work in the areas of collage and cubist abstraction. Spruill's work is in public and private collections worldwide, including The Kia Center - Orlando Fl. , Disney World, The City of Orlando, and The Media Institute to name a few.
