New Reclaimed Coffee Table by Aaron R. Thomas

Aaron R Thomas creates Original Site-Specific Artwork


The creation of Fine Art always involves the talent and essence of the Artist.  When creating a commissioned work of art that will inhabit a specific commercial or residential domain, an Artist is challenged with a creative puzzle. It involves a bringing together of a multitude of elements, including deciphering the needs of a specific space and sensitively reading the personality, ideas and dreams of a patron. 

Aaron R Thomas and A.R.T. Inc create Fine Art to fulfill site specific needs on a grand scale or down to the little details that ultimately define the success of a space.

Please enjoy this brief video which captures Aaron R Thomas and collaborator Anne-Louise Ewen hand painting a set of panels which will be mounted as doors to a patron's home in Manhattan Beach, CA. What you don't see it the behind the scenes activity of meeting with the client to discuss ideals, color matching, concept elaboration, stencil design and cutting, measuring, engineering and more...

Morning Sun on a New Sculpture




It is hard to capture the depth of the paint on Aaron's newest piece. This sculptural table combines a rustic texture with modern form and uses a deep graphite paint to pull all the subtleties together. I shot this piece this morning while being moved out of the studio. As the sun hit it, the textures of the wood seemed to melt together...
