"P-47 Thuderbolt"
The Artist Speaks… “Growing up in Wichita
Kansas, home of McConnell Air Force Base,
Boeing, Beechcraft, and Lear Jet
corporations, I was surrounded by the
culture of flight. Planes, civilian and military,
were designed and built and flown daily
overhead. In the early 1980’s, I was an
illustrator/graphic designer for Bendix
Aviation in Ft. Lauderdale, FL, and my love
for aviation grew by leaps and bounds. It was
expressed in watercolor as I rendered flying
scenes of my favorite planes: the Stearman,
Bendix racers, British aircraft, and those old
radial engines that powered many of them.
“I could have produced these aircraft
paintings in other mediums, but watercolor
was the one that gave me the freedom to
work loosely in some areas and very tight in
others. Watercolor has a translucent feel, a
loose flowing of color, but, oppositely, also
allows me to work in the very tight detail to
accomplish the effect I desire.”
