SPRING

gathers ‘round the gazebo to look and listen while three musicians warm up, the rest of the quartet—a violinist—practices her strings solo. (Perhaps she’s a bit nervous?) A magical moment for sure, the longer light of day is still evident as the full moon rises, and the street lamps and walkway lights come on as a lovely overture to the symphony of spring |

ADVANTAGE EAGLE
click on image for enlargement |
“’Advantage
Eagle’ is a term that will be heard frequently as long as the F-15 is flying,”
says artist Bill Phillips. Phillips likes the Eagle’s capabilities:
mach 2.5 and an unrefueled range of 1300 to 1500 miles with the centerline
tank in use.In his painting, the artist shows the F-15 screaming over the
Arizona desert on a training mission. “To impart a feeling of power
and motion, the landscape in my painting is at a slight angle and the foreground
is blurred as the Eagle roars by at about 500 knots.”

ALONE NO MORE

Sweet
Rose OGrady flew 124 missions, and
Alone No More chronicles one
of them. “She is returning from a mission with battle damage,’ says Phillips.
“She’ddropped behind the formation and was alone in the vast European skies—one
of the things most feared by bomber crews, because then they became easy
prey for the fighters of the Third Reich. But now Rosie is joined by two
Spitfire Mark XI’s of the 241st Squadron. They will escort her
home to England. Rosie and her crew are
Alone No More.”

AMONG THE COLUMNS OF THOR

“Among
the Columns of Thor has double meaning to it,” says renowned aviation
artist William S. Phillips. “In Norse mythology, Thor is the god of thunder
and war. These B-24s from the 409th Bomb Squadron, 23rd
Bomb Group, are in column formation, literally flying among Thor’s cloud
columns. They are escorted by P-51s from the 361st Fighter Squadron,
356th Fighter Group, as they return from their targets in Germany.”
Phillips depicts the aircraft flying from
the deeper, brooding colors that are symbolic of war into the lighter skies
of safety and peace. The uncamouflaged silver color scheme of the planes
represents Allied superiority and the coming end of the war. |

AND NOW THE TRAP
click on image for enlargement |
It is 1945 in the Pacific. Three F6F Hellcats are shown returning to the aircraft carrier USS Hornet (CV-12) after a routine patrol. The majority of the patrol flight was over, as was the majority of the war, but for these Hellcat pilots and the Allied military, there were still some very important things to do. “For these planes,” says renowned aviation artist William S. Phillips, “it was a trap’--landing on the relatively small, moving deck and catching the arresting cable with the plane’s tail hook. For the military as a whole, it was winning the war.” | Paper edition: 850 s/n Image size: 33 x 23 1/2

AND THE LIGHT SHALL PREVAIL

As Bill Phillips tells us, "My wife Kristi and I have enjoyed several trips recently to the coastline along Oregon and California and one day we witnessed a storm that inspired the image here. The morning dawned gray with a strong wind, the sea as fierce as I’ve ever seen it, the waves crashing against the shore and throwing their spray skyward. We watched as afternoon waned and stood in awe as the sun broke through, bringing life to sea and sky. I thought of Psalm 27:1, ‘The Lord, is, my light and my salvation...’ for He, like a lighthouse, beckons us from the storms of life into the shelter of His love." | Paper edition: 950 s/n Image size: 18 x 27

THE BEGINNING OF THE END

"Dutch" Van Kirk, navigator; Richard Nelson, radio operator; and first time signer Morris R. Jeppson, Bomb Electronics Officers. |
The flight of the Enola Gay and the capture of Iwo Jima, were two of the most significant events of World War II. I wanted, in some small way, to pay tribute to those who captured the island fortress even as I paid homage to the United States Army Air Forces and the crew of the Enola Gay for the mission. Both events hastened the end of the war and made the invasion of the Japanese homeland unnecessary. - William S. Phillips | Paper edition: 1000 s/n Image size: 27 x 23

BEST SEAT IN THE HOUSE
click on image for enlargement |
As
the firework displays light up the night sky with a dazzling palette of
color, we know it’s time to celebrate summer at the Bay View Inn. The 150-year-old
lodge features one of the most picturesque views in the Phillips Bay Highlands.
The Inn is as renowned for the sumptuous meals served on a stone terrace
overlooking both the Inner and Outer bays as it is for its nightly displays
of patriotism during the month of July. This night, classic automobiles
are featured at the twilight cruise from dockside through Phillips Bay
culminating with dancing to live music from the 1940s, ’50s and ’60s. If
you’re lucky enough to find a spot on the
west garden lawn across from the heart-shaped pond, you’ve got “The best seat in the house.” |
