Ferris is one of my heroes. I have several of his prints - then there's Barrie Clark, why didn't he paint more?

That was the original REX, sometimes unpredictable. The A2A Spit has a 4096 paint job by Tom Weiss of 'Lockon Files'.

I have a Barrie A F Clark on my wall here, the P-51, Ive studied it for years, a painting/print I and Rick brought for him in the early 1980s, some off his work is superb but over the years amount off errors I found on this painting - almost like got sick of it and was rushed , yet I look at it and think another day and it would have been smack on.

All I have by Clark is his definitive 'Spitfire' - once saw a pre-war RAF biplane by him but didn't buy, more fool me.

I saw the Spitfire print in an art shop down the road and the print was going for $595NZ.
