Contemporary realist Thomas Arvid returns to Key West Gallery, 601 Duval St., this month for an exhibit and “Meet the Artist” events Dec. 12 through Jan. 12.
Arvid’s paintings capture the elegance and romance of wine, fine dining and life’s most memorable moments.
The gallery will feature new original oil paintings, limited editions and mixed-media works by the artist.
This Key West event includes meet-the-artist receptions, unveiling of new original works and artist signings and dedications.
“Wine is a great subject because people are familiar with it,” says Arvid. “My paintings are really the landscapes between people sharing wine.”
The artist’s large-scale, hyper-realistic depictions of wine bottles, glasses and shared moments have been credited by Art Business News with “launching a major art trend.” Each piece invites the viewer to savor life’s simple pleasures — connection, celebration and good company.
Private viewing times are available for serious collectors by advance reservation.
Key West Gallery is in the heart of Duval Street’s art district. The island’s golden sunsets, lively streets and relaxed sophistication mirror the artist’s own celebration of life well-lived.
