Limited Edition Aviation Art by Sam Lyons More Info »
|
Sam Lyon's love of aviation since childhood led him down the road to his present career as a world-renowned aviation artist. His paintings can be found at military bases, museums, aviation gift shops, and in pilots' art collections throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe. Through his membership in the Air Force Art Program, Sam's painting "Lead Solo" graces the Air Force Art Hall in the Pentagon.
"Red Bird" features an extraordinary Waco UMF-5. Sam first spotted this Waco UMF-5 at Oshkosh 2005 and decided it was just too pretty to pass by. Prints were produced from an original created in colored pencil. The close-up front view captures all the details of the Jacobs engine and Sensenich propeller. After finishing the piece, Sam discovered the great story behind this airplane. Its a reproduction built from a set of plans over a 12-year period by John and Belinda Hudec of Oklahoma. John personally did all the welding, woodwork, compound aluminum metal forming, leather sewing, engine buildup, and covering. The Hudecs were honored that Sam chose to make a work of art from their labor of love. This print is produced on acid-free, neutral-pH paper with permanent inks and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. The image size is 21" x 15" and prints are available in a Limited Edition of 250 Signed & Numbered and 25 Artist Proofs.
