Iain Wyllie
Having been trained in Naval Architecture and having a strong interest in saling ships, Iain's first subjects were the famous clipper ships and beautiful seascapes. His first efforts at aircraft painting were produced for painting competitions when he was a member of the Royal Observer Corps. Amongst his collection he still has a painting of a Gloster Javelin which won him the first of many competitions back in the 1960's. During the 1970's Iain perfected the art of airbrush painting and as a result became more and more recognised as on of the UK's finest artists, which finally led Iain into becoming a full time aviation airbrush artist producing over 80 cover paintings for the famous Osprey series of aviation books, as well as many private commissions.
