Following in the tradition of his previous aircraft carrier paintings, including
Home is the Hunter and America on the Move (now sold out), master aviation
artist William S. Phillips brings out the best in his impressive "fleet" of
nautical canvases. While researching Out of the Squall Line, Phillips spent time aboard the USS
Harry S. Truman, where he was given the opportunity to see every aspect of the
ship and its flight operations. In a personal challenge, Phillips included at
least one portion of each of the Truman's air wings in the painting. The Truman is the eighth Nimitz Class aircraft carrier authorized to be built by
Congress; she was christened in 1996 in Newport News, Virginia. The carrier has
a crew of more than 160 officers and 3,200 sailors and recently participated in
Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom. This is a big year for William S. Phillips, with a U.S. Postal Service stamp
program and a new aviation art book published by Greenwich Workshop Press in the
works. Start out the new year by making a perfect landing on this super carrier
with Phillips's stunning Out of the Squall Line.
