Description: Two mk 5 Spifires on patrol over the channel. Always wanted to have a crack at painting these difficult shapes.
The original of this my very first aviation has been sold. I tried to get the feel of what it was like to be in the situation suggested by the title. The unusual shape of the canvas really added somehting.
Just a word of thanks for your welcome and following the advice of Wurger, Matt308 and Lancaster Kicks ***, I have posted three more painings in the picture album.
All the best
Tom
Although the original has been sold I have uploaded this as an example of how little subject matter you can have to still make an exciting painting. Imagine (as I did) I was a young boy standing on a dune watching these two come towards me!
A photo of an oil on canvas on two ME109s being pursued at a dangerously low level by ywo RAF Spitfires. It may not have been sensioble or possible to fly this low, but I claim artists licence.
