His first exposition was at the “Medellin Museum of Modern Art” in Colombia.  Over time there were many expositions to show his techniques including the Sand Museum, The Botanic Park and some private galleries throughout the city.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eOne day Arbey was working on a painting.  He stopped to drink a little café, a strong Cuban coffee.  He accidentally spilled some onto his canvas and discovered something magical.  Painting with coffee was a great technique to acquire an old fashioned sepia look. Although abstract expressionism interested him, he saw his primary inspiration from the Italian renaissance. After this discovery with coffee he began to experiment with perspective in his paintings by expanding the figures and compressing the space around them, a method he continues to explore. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eOn May 12, 2008 at the “Artexpo New York” Arbey an emerging artist, exhibited the latest trends in popular and fine art.  These paintings were done using his discovery of painting with coffee.
