In My Island Studio
Just practicing some Jimmy Buffett on the ukulele and enjoying a day of painting . . .
This is my latest original collage that I will be debuting at A Boy and His Dog Fine Art tonight. It’s going to be a great event so come out and join me. I’m drinking a mojito now but we’ll be pouring some great wine tonight!

High Museum Wine Auction & Gala
Every year, Vanessa and I participate in one of the most anticipated benefits of the year, the High Museum Wine Auction & Gala here in Atlanta. We always enjoy coming together with our friends to support the arts in our community and it’s especially nice to spend time with all of my favorite vintners – see you soon in Napa!

A special thanks to my friend Dr. Revana of Revana Family Vineyards for generously partnering with me on our live auction lot to donate his exclusive wine with my original crate “In the Heart of It”

A Royal Artist Dinner
Vanessa and I hosted the Artist Dinner to benefit the High Museum of Art this year and what a magnificent night! Not only did we succeed in raising money to support the many art programs that the High Museum provides, but we had a great evening sharing some of my favorite wines with old and new friends. Rock violinist Aaron Meyer treated us to an amazing private performance and Chef Shane Touhy created a stunning five course feast that could only be fit for a king. We enjoyed wine from Silver Oak Cellars, ZD Wines, Anderson Conn Valley and Dolce to name a few . . .

Hometown Tribute
It was great to be back in my hometown of Detroit to see old friends and share great wine from Fisher Vineyards. Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse opened their newest restaurant in Livonia and to celebrate, I created an original crate collage featuring Fisher’s excellent cabernet. We all came together to host a benefit for Juvenile Diabetes and the evening was a huge success – thank you to all who helped make the night a hit!

A Night on the Town
I look forward to this time of the year because I get to show my appreciation for my biggest supporters . . . the galleries! Each March, New York is the host of Art Expo and I get to be the host of an evening on the town with our family of Arvid galleries. This year, we wined and dined at Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse in Edgewater, NJ as I unveiled my new work. The staff was amazing and I enjoyed spending time with old friends.
Gina and David Papazian of Dzian Gallery are among the newest additions to the Arvid program – welcome and I look forward to a great year!
