After a 35 year career as a trial attorney and senior partner in a local law firm he retired to pursue his career as an artist.  Arvid has won numerous awards for his sculptures and unique monotypes.  He is active in the Peninsula Art League and is an exhibiting artist with Gig Harbor’s Gallery Row.

Artist's statement:  My objective is to concentrate on design and balance enhanced by color.


Monotype:   A unique, original work of art created through a combination of painting and printmaking techniques.  The one-of-a-kind image is developed on an unaltered, flat plate using oil or water based media and transferred by hand or by a press onto another surface, usually paper. A single original image is obtained.
