Fine Art Giclee Print of KC-10 Extender air-to-air tanker refueling an F15. The original was created using acrylic on canvas & ceramic stucco texture. This is printed on archival fine art thick watercolor paper or thick canvas.

**PLEASE NOTE that you can order this to be canvas stretched or unframed. The original was created using acrylic on canvas & ceramic stucco texture. The print will arrive loosely rolled in a long shipping box or tube if you order the unframed print.

Framing: If you choose not to get the canvas stretched, I highly recommend framebridge.com, they do great work and will ship you a mailer for free. They usually have your framing done in 2 days and ship it back to you for free. They do almost any size you would need.

Thank you!

*Giclée prints are so vivid it looks like you can touch the texture. A "giclée" print means you will be receiving the highest quality print available. The process entails digital printmaking with a printer that uses minute droplets of archival ink to produce prints that cannot be duplicated by other printing techniques. There is no visible dot screen pattern which results in an image that has all of the subtle tonalities of the original piece of artwork. Thus producing exceptional museum quality prints. With this technology the printer can achieve a true reproduction of my original done on archival canvas.

My husband is a pilot in the Air Force & when he was deployed I decided I wanted to do something special for him when he was finally coming home. So I decided I wanted to try to paint his plane that he was flying at that time. The gift turned out to be a success! Soon after, I suddenly started getting interest from other service members for other various planes. Now I'm continuing my passion for trying to create a piece of art that may symbolize their time in service at each stage of their career. I love the use of bright colors and texture to really try to bring out just how awesome these machines are. And I guess it's my little way of trying to give back to those who do so much for our country.
