Happy Birthday, Honey!

Pic. Size:
15"X10"
(37,5X25,5cm)

This picture was painted for my Husband's birthday. The RV is his favourite Airplane Design. He enjoys this picture. He has in the past worked on building an RV-3, (All are from Van's Aircraft, Oregon), and flown in the prototype RV-4 in the early days before buying the partly finished RV-3 Kit he did some work on.

I like to join him in the summer on Trips to Oshkosh, Wisconsin, for the famed 'Air Venture' show, but I really don't like the usual accomodations (Camping)! On the other hand - last year when we set up Camp in a new area, I was thinking of some friends from Pensylvania we had met there three years earlier, and as fate would have it - we had parked just the second spot over from where they were set up!!

I have posts with other aircraft, if you like. They are:
a Beechcraft Twin Baron and an Ultralight in Alaska.

Beach Twin Baron

I like to paint airplanes and the sky. And I like to see the Earth from aloft. Some of my best ideas for painting come when I am flying somewhere and looking at the earth. (When it is a nice flight, anyway - I hate rough flying weather, how about you?)

My husband is a Pilot, and loves to fly smaller aircraft much more than taking a commercial flight, but he is good to hang on to during turbulence, as he understands the flight will be fine! He usually flies single engine aircraft but has flown and started to get his rating for planes with two engines - the 'Multi - Rating' training in a Twin Comanche.

This picture of a Baron was chosen because of I liked it during one of our trips to EAA Oshkosh in the summer. This is a picture I painted for him, for his birthday. This Picture was painted with Acrylic on Canvas, as I wanted something that is a bit more durable, and has a different character about it.
