CHANGING OF THE GUARD
 |
Bill Phillips’ portrayal of Army
helicoptersagainst a backdrop of Heidelberg Castle is as much symbolic as literal.His work depicts afly-by of a UH-1H “Huey” andaUH-60 “Blackhawk.” Yet the real story is toldby the artist in these words: “The army’s newest helicopter, the ‘Blackhawk,’ begins a turn toward the viewer and into the action of future events.In the background, the ‘Huey” flies a steady course into the pages ofhistory.” |

Christmas
on the 8th Click on image to enlarge |
To the dedicated golfer, a day without golf is hardly a day at all. Imagining Christmas for these enthusiasts, Bill Phillips created Christmas on the Eighth, a charming holiday tribute to those most loyal of hobbyists. “I expect that if they were really into it they would have gone out, cleared the snow off the greens and played a round of golf,” says the artist. At the end of the eighth hole, though, it’s nice to have a warm, cheery house to which to return. |

CONFRONTATION AT BEACHY
HEAD  click on image for enlargement |
On August 6, 1940, Germany mounted a massive
air attack on Great Britain.The Germans reasoned that if they could control the sky over England, the country would soon fall – as Poland, Austria and France had already fallen. What they had not anticipated was the fierceness with which the English took to the skies to do battle.any young English pilots would die preserving the freedom of their country.But by September 15, 1940, their sacrifices would prove not to have been in vain; the English and their allies had repulsed the German takeover. Of Confrontation At Beachy Head Aviation artist Bill Phillips says, “Shrieking over the cliffs of Beachy Head, a Spitfire of No. 92 Squadron and a German BF109E of 9/JG54 engage in a head-on confrontation during the first week of September 1940.This highly contested piece of real estate was to see many similar confrontations during the crucial days between August 6 and September 15, 1940 Who was to obtain the advantage in this confrontation of grim skill?You be the judge.” |

DAWN OF THE LIBERATORS click on image for enlargement |
Dawn of the Liberators was
created as a tribute
to the aviators whose bravery contributed to the Allied victory in
World War II. The painting was commissioned as a memorial to artist
Howard Terpning’s brother, First Lieutenant John E. Terpning, who paid
the ultimate price to secure American freedom. First Lieutenant
Terpning was a pilot in the crew of B-24D Bomber 42-20525, which was
lost over New Guinea on May 7, 1944.
As they fly into formation on the way to their targets, two B-24s of the 43rd Bomb Group’s 64th Squadron climb into a Pacific dawn. Although they were historically eclipsed in number by their European counterparts, the B-24 Squadrons of the Asiatic-Pacific theater fought a relentless and determined enemy in an unforgiving environment to ensure safety for the Allied nations |

DENALI SUMMER click on image for enlargement |
Bill Phillips’ new painting Denali Summer features two celebrated icons of the far North: one natural, one man-made. The forbidding and beautiful Alaskan wilds provide the backdrop for the legendary workhorse of the Alaskan bush: a De Havilland Beaver float plane. As the plane roars over the summer tundra, the icy river below rushes and tumbles its contents of glacial silt. On the distant horizon, America’s highest peak dominates the horizon. (Mount McKinley is also known as Denali, or “The High One,” in the language of the local people.) Mount McKinley’s scale is so massive that the mountain actually creates its own weather, and today its peak sparkles in the brilliant sunlight of one of the few cloudless days of the year. | Canvas: 150 s/n Image

DUSTOFF -
ANGELS OF MERCY  click on image for enlargement Countersigned by both Novosel and his son Mike,Jr. They were the only father and son team to fly in the same unit—and each had the task of rescuing each other and flying more than 8,800 wounded to safety or emergency medical treatment. |
With plexiglass fragments from his helicopter's
windshield buried in his hand, calf and thigh, Michael J . Novosel, pilot for the 82nd Medical Detachment, steadied the 'copter as another soldier pulled a wounded soldier to safety. Met by intense groundfire, Novosel still managed to save 29 soldiers by going back into enemy fire again and again. For this, he was an Army Medal of Honor recipient in the Vietnam War. This print is a fine tribute to Army aviators, their crews and the gunships that protected them. It is countersigned by both Novosel and his son Mike, Jr. They were the only father and son team to fly in the same unit—and each had the task of rescuing each other and flying more than 8,800 wounded to safety or emergency medical treatment. |
