Airliner paintings

Post by beany »

The father of a friend of mine is a retired airline pilot and she asked me if I could do a painting for him. These are the two I found on-line to copy for her. I am about to mail them to her so I hope she - and more importantly her dad - likes them.
(They look better from 6 foot hanging on a wall than close up - just saying!).

Very nice, Al. Great angle.

Send me a business class return air ticket and I'll gladly give you some free lessons mate! :twisted: ;-)
(Back when I lived over there I had to travel down from Brisbane to run a 3 day computer course for railway technicians in a hotel in Glenelg - loved the place).
