This collection encompasses the full range of Wootton's art, from his intense early years as official artist to the RAF during WWII, to the very recent past, including his impressions of Concorde and modern high-tech fighter planes. The book begins with commentary from Wootton on his experiences, illustrated by his line drawings and sketches of the people, vehicles and aircraft that surrounded him. It then goes on to present over 70 exquisite plates splendidly reproduced in full colour. No library descriptions found. |

[From back cover] Frank Wootton's aviation art career began in 1940, while awaiting call-up to the RAF. Some time later he became a full-time war artist and his brilliant coverage of the war in Northwest Europe and the Far East brought him world-wide fame. Today, he still maintains an active interest in both the RAF and USAF, and his unique position as the foremost aviation artist of the day. Technically superb in their treatment of wood, canvas and metal, his aircraft paintings owe their magnificent feeling of space to his conviction that the most important thing about an aircraft is the sky in which it flies.
