A Winkle in Time

A Winkle in Time by Thomas Arvid, measuring  43" x 15" (framed dimensions: 46" x 23"). Limited Edition 56 of 195 on canvas or Artist's Proof.

In a departure from his signature style, Arvid deftly displays the gestural hand of the artist in “A Winkle in Time.” While the bourbon in the glass, parts of the label, and the foil reflect the level of clarity and detail Arvid is famous for, he teases us by leaving strategic parts of the painting penciled in. Arvid also takes a natural segue from wine to bourbon. Inspired by sipping fine bourbon after dinner with friends, Arvid captures the inexplicable moment when you make a connection and a memory with someone over something as simple as sharing spirits. Once again, he reminds us to slow down and savor the details, because that is where life happens. 

Unconstrained by conventional size, Arvid’s compositions are dictated by the elements in them. Classically composed, the stylish and elegant appeal of his art is a testament to Arvid’s ability to translate the sensory experience of a moment onto canvas. Through the artist’s eyes, we are invited to share in life’s special moments, where there is always a good bottle close at hand.
