Visions Limited Edition Sam Lyons Print
In Visions, world-renowned aviation artist Sam Lyons offers viewers a glimpse into a setting that many fledgling pilots have doubtless experienced themselves – albeit under somewhat differing circumstances. The 17″ x 26″ illustration depicts a rookie Air Force flight trainee perched atop the wing of a T-37 Tweet staring skyward in amazement as the USAF Thunderbirds thrill spectators with their tight formation aerobatic routine. Besides the image’s instantly relatable essence, both aviation enthusiasts and art aficionados will appreciate Lyons’ superb depiction of the T-37. In addition to its 100% accurate attributes, the level of sheen on the aircraft’s surface is so lifelike, you’d think you could reach out and touch it. Also impressive is the realism in the ramp, the hypnotic blue of the sky, and even the contrails streaking behind the F-16 Fighting Falcons. For every kid that’s ever stood at an airport fence and longed to join the ranks of the pilot community, this picture is aviation motivation at its best.
