In The Wind, oil on cradled board, 20 x 16
This is a Trompe L'oeil painting. Trompe-l'œil (French for "deceive the eye", pronounced [tʁɔ̃p lœj]) is an art technique that uses realistic imagery to create the optical illusion that the depicted objects exist in three dimensions.
The 'frame', (not a real frame but painted onto the board) encircles a
photo of an early aviatrix, an airmail envelope, parts from aviation
games and more.
