Those of us who look skyward are passionate about machines that fly and the stories about those flying wonders. Our stories come from diverse experiences but share a common origin, the love of all things aviation. There are tales about military service passed down for generations, or perhaps an antique on wings from a bygone era or even a craft you've built with your own hands. What I want hanging on your wall is a story in art, a conversation starter for the tales we love to tell.
Civilian aviation has always been the heartbeat of aviation. It is a means for Earth bound humans to look into the sky and dream of soaring through the sun split heights, and to view our planet from an uncommon vantage. Pioneers of flight dared to dream and create the machines that first got man off the ground and propelled aviation with their daring and ingenuity.
Since the dawn of aviation, humans have found ever more effective ways to combat one another with uniquely beautiful machines. It is without argument that military use of the airplane has cause astonishing advancement in air and space technology. Beyond the mere machines however are the pilots and aviators who built lasting bonds with those with whom they served and call brother.
