Here we go again!!!

As the days draw in and we head towards winter, November has become another month of Lockdown here in the UK. The season of mists and mellow fruitfulness has become the season of frustration and boredom. At least there is a good excuse for spending more time at the easel and tweaking those paintings and drawings that are still works in progress.

One of the things that we can do is to get away from the news channels, full of gloom and doom. Whether it’s the latest “science” that can’t decide if we are doomed or not, or the Election in my homeland, which is beginning to look like the plot of a Hollywood horror film, the world outside has enough negativity to fill an ocean.

Here’s a better idea: Head over to these web sites to see what other aviation artists are up to these days.

www.ragged-edge-art.com

www.paulcouper.com

www.robhames.com

I have spent quite a few pleasant hours with these fine gentlemen during sketching days sponsored by the Guild of Aviation Artists at venues in the south of England. Well worth a visit to their sites; and for a broader overview of the Aviation Art scene, head here as well:

I’ll be adding other links as time goes by. Check back occasionally.
