History of Aviation & Something Different by Joel R. Simpson

As my Bio mentioned, I have always been fascinated with aviation and in particular military aviation.

The paintings displayed here are a mix of scenes throughout the military history of aviation, some are of actual events.

With every painting, I attempt to convey the story of the scene being presented to allow the viewer to gain a better understanding of what is taking place in front of them.

In "Something Different", I am experimenting with landscapes, skyscapes, flora, and fauna. I am quite fond of lighthouses and the great beasts which roam this earth.
