Aviation Artist Randy Nagle
Once in a great while an artist comes along with the ability to take you on an adventure just by looking into
their paintings. The once in a great while is here and now with the art of Randy Nagle.
With a blank canvas and his love for aviation and the undersea world guiding him, the series "Sunlit
Legends" was born.
When viewing Randy's art, sit back, relax and let him take you on a once in a lifetime adventure each and
every time.
These aviation art prints are unique aviation gift. No other aviation artist has combined the colors and
tranquility of the sea floor with the splendor of a war bird. These prints are wonderful seascapes with the
touch of a bird's final resting place. Every angle of these planes has been painted in flight but this is the
first time you can see these planes in a realistic setting of this nature. The giclee makes the colors of oils
jump out at you. Randy's unique aviation art is a must for the aviation art collector and makes a great piece
for the home.
A word from the artist:
Randy Nagle was born in Austin, Texas, in 1953.
Following in the footsteps of his artist father, Bill
Nagle, Randy began showing true artistic ability
around the age of 9.
Randy, always being a lover of aviation, painted
many depictions of different aircraft. His
particular affection was for World War II era
aviation art. Growing up, Randy would live in
Texas and in Oregon. In those places, he learned
different application techniques for his artistic
abilities. He learned the art of custom car
painting, airbrush muraling, sign painting and
woodworking. During this time, he would
produce many original pieces of fine art, filling
his home with as much aviation art as he could.
After much research and many telephone calls, a
new and upcoming motorcoach manufacturer
would get the name Randy Nagle, time and time
again as the best artist in the area. Soon Randy's
name was known as the best airbrush mural
artist in the country. During this time, 9 years to
be exact, Randy was still pursuing the aviation
art he so dearly loved.
A close friend, Stewart Barr, encouraged Randy
and introduced him to aviation artist, William S.
Phillips. Mr. Phillips, after seeing Randy's
originals, encouraged him further to continue to
pursue his dream of printing his aviation art.
With the help of Stewart Barr, who is an avid
diver, supplying Randy with pictures of the
beautiful and mysterious underwater world of
the vast oceans, "Sunlit Legends" became the
reality of the aviation art that Randy had
dreamed of.
"Sunlit Legends" is the combination of the
aviation art and underwater art that Randy feel
so strongly about. Always a lover of aviation,
and the cool calmness and mystery of the world
under the sea, what better way to pay tribute to
the great men and aircraft of the World War II era.
Who can forget the famous aircraft lost at sea?
The B-25 Mitchell? The P-51 Mustang or the P-38
Lightning? These images so well known to
aviators and history buffs, captured in their final
resting place in the aviation art of Randy Nagle.
There are many great aviation artists, all
capturing the beauty and strength of these great
machines. Randy's love of aviation and aviation
art, combined with his love of the underwater art,
Sunlit Legends" became his contribution to the
fine art field.

Aloha!
