"Sweet Time" is a clever and captivating original oil painting by Pete Tillack, showcasing his distinctive talent for blending humor, symbolism, and refined detail. Painted on sleek aluminum, this striking still-life features a bold blackbird perched atop a vintage alarm clock, eyeing a colorfully sprinkled donut with one irresistible bite missing.

The textured damask-inspired background adds a touch of elegance, while the metallic surface amplifies the visual depth and sheen of the scene. Light dances across the aluminum, enhancing both the rich iridescence of the bird’s feathers and the soft shadows cast by the objects—creating a moment suspended in time.

Hand-framed by the artist in a sleek, contemporary molding, "Sweet Time" is ready to hang and spark conversation. The thoughtful juxtaposition of an indulgent treat with the ticking reminder of time playfully invites viewers to reflect on temptation, mindfulness, and the fleeting nature of life’s simple pleasures.

This one-of-a-kind painting is a perfect fusion of modern style and timeless wit—an ideal centerpiece for collectors who appreciate art with both depth and personality.
