I was visiting the Gig Harbor Vintage Aero Museum and saw a stunning 1953 Cessna 195 Businessliner that is part of their collection. It was painted a brilliant red and white, and has classic Art Deco styling details that have helped to make this vintage plane a legend. Of course, I was intrigued!
I decided to paint it but wanted to move it out of the hanger into a bright, sunny day, and I made the artistic decision to also change the white parts of the airplane to chrome, so they could reflect the surrounding sky and airport. All this required using my imagination to fill in those details.
Look for the airplane hangers, the wind sock, the people walking around and the plane flying overhead.
If you are interested, here is a link to a 48 minute video about how I painted it.
These are high quality giclee reproductions that are printed on fine art paper and come with a white border. They generally arrive at your home within 2-3 weeks of ordering, ready to be matted and framed. Most of the available sizes will fit standard frames with mats that can be found at any store or online site. When choosing a frame, the mat size should be the same as the reproduction size, and the final frame size is generally 4 - 8” larger on the width and length, depending on the size of the reproduction.
Prices for unframed reproductions include shipping.
Custom sized reproductions may be available. I can also mat and frame your reproduction for you, using archival mats and conservation-grade UV blocking acrylic fronts. Just ask me for pricing!
