  • Lancaster flies East at sunset “from an airfield, somewhere in England”, as they used to say during the war.

  • As the dawn breaks and the bombers leave the protective darkness of the night, “Crossing the Coast” is one of the most welcome intercom messages that returning bomber crews can hear after hours flying over enemy territory. / “Crossing the Coast” was inspired by a previous commission I’d painted called “Skipper, we are on fire!” These most feared words were quoted to me by John ‘Jock’ Morrison. / An ex-Sergeant wireless operator, he now lives in County Durham and returned to Norway in 2000, to collect his flying helmet from the grandchildren of the family who had looked after him and his fellow crewmen, when they crashed their Halifax bomber in Norway after depth charging the Tirpitz in April 1942. You may have read about his Norwegian visit in the newspapers. / “Crossing the Coast Skipper” has been used to illustrate the front cover of Tony Eaton’s book “Two Friends, Two Different Hells.” The story of two school-friend’s different wars. / Acrylic on canvas board 18×24 inches approx.

  • "Buggy Ride"
    by Dyle Warren

    US$3.42–US$91.20

    After many years, we decided to take a trip back to my birthplace of Pennsylvania. We stayed for several days in the Amish town of, “Bird-in-Hand” – Lancaster County never expecting to see quite so many buggies as we did, it was awesome! It was fascinating, watching them hard at work and going about their daily activities of gardening and farming. Getting photos of the Amish is not the easiest thing to do, particularly when they don’t want their picture taken. The desire to get that “once in a lifetime” shot and at the same time trying not to be disrespectful is difficult…

  • Cheshire CATh noseart
    by Woodie

    US$3.42–US$91.20

    A college project to do the artwork for a make-believe film. I choose “Dambusters 2” featuring Wing Commander Lenard Cheshire. This is the nose-art for his P51 Mustang, and the figure was based on the controversial 2000 Opium advert of Sophie Dahl. I put some pants on her and turned her upright. I gave the film the “Pearl Harbor” treatment i.e. don’t let the facts get in to way of a good story! / This is painted on 2 metal panels bolted together. (Lids from twin tub washing machine). The rivets are painted on. / Stop Press / Stephen Fry has written a screenplay for a new $100million Dambuster movie starring Jame McAvoy as Guy Gibson.
