I am featuring my painting of the Red Tails Escorting the B17s. In WWII, these fighter planes were flown by the first Black pilots in the U.S. Armed Forces, the Tuskegee Airmen. It was my privilege to interview and sketch some of the veterans and hear their stories firsthand (click on the video).
The Pritzker Military Museum & Library in Chicago commissioned this painting for its Holt Oral History Room. The painting shows the Red Tails escorting our bombers over enemy territory in a dramatic air fight. Limited edition prints are available from this website.
