I've been to a few 'Battle of Britain' flights which showcases the Lancaster with two spitfires either side - that's pretty special and gives me goosebumps.

Your paintings are superb and I'm tempted to go into oils as you make it look so easy...

Thank you for sharing that story about the Lancaster Squatchit, I'll let my old friend know what you said he will be tickled pink. Yea I only started to do oils about 2 years ago, only after watching a DVD I sent away for, it was all I needed to get me going, if you ever want me to send you a copy I will, its really good.
