ARTBYDAVID Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 After the recent Vintage Fly In and Military Vehicle Display at Sleap Airfield and the Welshpool Air Show I would like to share a few images of some of the Watercolours I painted at the two events. The weather was pretty rough at both days for the Event at Sleap and crowds were very low. I big thank you to the members of Shropshire Aeroclub who shared the Lecture room, and in particular Matt who supplied the home made burgers that were delicious, and his excellent home made wine. The Air Show at Welshpool was a brilliant day weather wise, with a full and excellent display of Aircraft. Good crowds and a good day Business wise, and I still managed to paint in between customers.

spanter Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Fantastic artwork, how long did each one take roughly to create, as you say you painted during the shows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTBYDAVID Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Fantastic artwork, how long did each one take roughly to create, as you say you painted during the shows? Sorry been busy and hadn't kept up to date with my posts. Not all of the images were painted at the shows, the Oil Paintings had to be painted in advance to allow drying time. The other watercolours are quite small around 7" x 5" and were all painted throughout 3 days. Unfortunately the show at Sleap was very wet and quieter so it allowed me to produce six of the images at the event. At the Welshpool Air show I only managed to finish one Watercolour. It was a great day weather wise and a lot busier. So potentially around 2 hours or so on each one. Hope that helps and again apologies for the slow reply.

I forgot to add that the beauty of silhouettes is that they are quick, keep the costs down but they are very effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
