Dominique is a Canadian figurative and landscape painter who captures the spirit of the west coast in light filled oil paintings. In addition to painting, she currently teaches in the IDEA School of Design at Capilano University. She is the fourth generation of a family of female portrait and landscape painters known as the Everard Group, whose work can be found in private collections worldwide and the national galleries of South Africa.

"My work is driven by a desire to capture the beauty and quiet magic of the everyday—the domestic spaces and fleeting moments that often go unnoticed. I am drawn to honouring not only the big moments, but also the mundane and routine, recognising them as deeply meaningful through the act of representation.

As a mother, I aim to reflect the emotional depth and complexity of motherhood, and to acknowledge the enduring value of the work parents do. Through painted snapshots of family life, I seek to preserve what is so often ephemeral: the mess, the wonder, the stillness, the chaos. These works are a celebration of a childhood fully explored, and an invitation to slow down, to observe, and to let children be.

At its heart, my practice is about storytelling—about capturing the small and beautiful moments that shape our lives and giving them the space and dignity they deserve."
