CAPTAIN EDDIE
In an exquisite tribute to America's World War I Ace of Aces, Richard Taylor has created yet another inspirational drawing to add to his growing list of highly-collectible masterworks. Deservedly respected for his skilful technique of incorporating pencil and colourwash highlights, Richard furthers his repertoire of World War I subjects with Captain Eddie, a superb depiction of Rickenbacker alongside the Spad XIII fighters of his 94th 'Hat-in-the-Ring' Aero Squadron on the Western Front in 1918.

CHANNEL SWEEP
Richard Taylor's stunning painting depicts Mk1 Spitfires from 92 Squadron undertaking a defensive sweep along the Kent coastline against a dramatic backdrop of the white cliffs of Dover, at the height of the battle in September 1940.

CLOUD DANCERS
Choosing the legendary figure of Lt. Joe Peterburs to represent all the Eighth's fighter pilots, Richard Taylor has crafted another of his by now famous drawings. Entitled 'Cloud Dancers' he depicts Joe's aircraft amongst other P-51s from the 20th Fighter Group as they climb to gain altitude at the start of a typical escort mission. For Joe, however, this was his last; having just shot down an Me262 jet flown by Luftwaffe Ace Walter Schuck, he'd then destroyed five more aircraft in a strafing attack, but his P-51 was hit by groundfire. Lady luck was on his side, however, and he survived; baling out and taken prisoner he managed to escape to join a company of Russian troops for the final days of the war.

COASTAL PATROL
Coastal Patrol, a new painting by the remarkably gifted young artist Richard Taylor, depicts Mk I Spitfires of 610
Squadron flying a defensive patrol low over the White Cliffs during the height of the Battle of Britain in August 1940. A superb painting that symbolises a crucial period
in history.
