Our country's national ensign forms
the backdrop for this portrait of the potent and agile F/A 18 Super Hornet. A
second critical look at the print will reveal another national symbol, a bald
eagle, which the artist has cleverly included in the folds of the flag.

Set
against a beautiful sunset, the versatile F/A-18 Hornet is framed by the visage
of America's national symbol. In Strong Arm of Freedom,
aviation artist Darryl Strader demonstrates his mastery of color with his
striking but subtle treatment of two of America's freedom symbols. The 22"
x 30" print is signed by the artist. Be sure to select your desired
print options when ordering!
Storm Warning
August
1990 saw the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, claiming for themselves the
"Nineteenth Province" of Greater Iraq. As the allied coalition,
led by the United States, pressed for Iraqi withdrawal, the troops, planes tanks
and ships of the coalition gathered, first to defend Saudi Arabia from invasion,
and then to forcibly expel the Iraqi forces from Kuwait and restore it's
legitimate government. After months of futile negotiations, allied forces
prepared to strike. STORM WARNING is a stunning depiction of
the flight and deck crews aboard the USS Saratoga preparing F-14 Tomcats of
V-103 (Sluggers) and F/A-18 Hornets (Sunliners) for the upcoming missions of
January 16th, 1991, the evening before the launch of Operation Desert Storm.
