 Nine O Nine by Philip WestAn outstanding new painting by highly acclaimed and collected artist Philip E. West. By any standards a fabulously evocative painting, of one of the most remarkable aircraft to have flown during World War 2. Check out the detail on the nose of the aircraft, the ground crew braving freezing cold weather to get their favourite aircraft ready for when the crew arrive, look at the trees and ground - that's how it was in those days! The sun rising, though, gives you a sense of warmth as well as reassurance this mighty bomber will once again be able to take to the skies that day and in so doing, contribute to our very own freedom now.

 Arctic Hunters by Richard TaylorMe109s JG5
Occupied by the Germans, by 1942 Norway had become vital to Hitlers war in the East. With the Russians threatening to overrun Finland and attack Norway, the pilots of JG5 were tasked to support German ground forces, and to escort the incessant Luftwaffe attacks on Arctic Convoys from Britain to the vital Russian ports of Murmansk and Archangel. With such unpredictably harsh weather it was a life-or-death battle fought under extreme conditions.

 The Great Escape By Ley KenyonPOW Wartime Artist The night of 24 March 1944 has gone down in history as one of the bravest and most daring escape attempts of the entire war This was the night of The Great Escape. Over 200 inmates of the Prisoner of War camp Stalag Luft III in Zagan, Poland were ready and prepared with forged papers, maps, civilian clothes and an indomitable desire to be free.
Needed for this were camera and film, both luxuries that could not be squandered on posterity; thus the senior British officer asked fellow prisoner and artist Ley Kenyon to make a visual record of Harry the tunnel that would ultimately be used for the escape. Kenyon completed six drawings, all of which were sealed in a watertight container fashioned from old milk tins, and stored in the abandoned tunnel Dick.

In early 1941 the unit moved to the Eastern Front in preparation for the invasion of Russia, and it was in this theatre that they became synonymous both with the relentless struggle against the military might of the Soviets and also, during successive winters, the battle simply to survive the severe weather conditions.

It is December 1941, and London is once again under concentrated attack. With fires raging below the armada of German bombers is clearly visible in the night sky as they sweep across the city. Shimmering in the glow of destruction, a lone Hurricane night-fighter from 85 Squadron, based at nearby Gravesend, engages Heinkel 111s of KG55 in a desperate attempt to break up the formations.

 DESERT SHARKS By Robert TaylorTHE GRAPHITE PORTFOLIO - A new series of Limited Edition pencil drawings. A new Limited Edition from Robert Taylor, whose evocative pencil drawing commemorates the Curtis P40 and the pilots of the Allied Air Forces who flew it with such heroic distinction throughout World War II One of the stalwarts of the long hot Desert Air War, the Curtis P40 Kittyhawk was flown with extraordinary verve and courage not only by the pilots of the RAF, but also those of the Royal Australian, Canadian, and South African Air Forces.
The renowned Curtis P40 Warhawk was, by the time of Pearl Harbor in December 1941, numerically the most important American fighter aircraft and had already been supplied to the RAF in mid 1940, where it was designated first the Tomahawk, and later versions the Kittyhawk. This classic aircraft remained in continuous front line service and flew in most theatres of operation throughout World War II.
