Tropical Runway
1st IN SAM'S FLORIDA SERIES! This incredibly life-like scene with a very pretty Cub on floats was named after a "Name the Painting" contest that was held during EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2010. The details on this print are so exact, you can hear the call of the birds and the gentle whoosh of their wings. Feel the heaviness of the Florida air. Take a breath and you can smell the slightly musky, earthy scent of the lush tropical greenery. And how about the gator? Can you spot her? This is the view Sam and Mindy have from their Lakeland backyard. Unfortunately a gorgeous Cub float plane does not sit by their dock. They don’t even have a dock … yet. But that’s the beauty of artistic license. Just so you know, Sam can Remarque this print with your N# or personalize other features of the plane (like cowling, exhaust, rudder, etc.) for a charge. Call the studio (863-644-5010)for more info. The 16” x 20” prints are available in a Limited Edition size of 300 Signed & Numbered; 30 Artist Proofs; and 25 Giclee Prints on Canvas. If framed, it will consist of double mats, plaque, and a wood frame. "Tropical Runway" is also available in a special sized Print on Canvas with deluxe framing. Image size is 24" x 30." (NOTE: Shipping charge for this POC will be $60) [ More Information ]

"Clipper in Paradise" is available as a Giclee Print on Canvas and has the look of an original. Price includes wood frame with linen liner.

"Racing for Home" is sure to be another Cub classic by Sam. It has all the elements of a favorite, including Cub, '51 Chevy truck and old-fashioned barn.

Racing for Home
As with most of Sam's pictures, “Racing for Home” has an entertaining story behind its creation. The idea for the piece began 15 years ago when he did a sketch on a restaurant napkin. The quick sketch went into his idea file and there it sat.Fast forward to 2009. One of Sam's most loyal customers was due for his yearly commission. Buddy Stallings is head of Eastern Aviation Fuels, the nationwide distributor for Shell aviation products. He wanted to feature a Cub in this year's original painting so Sam put on his thinking cap and pulled out his idea file. That's how “Racing for Home” came to life. The pretty yellow Piper Cub is heading in the same direction as the 1951 Chevy truck (which is actually Sam's truck) and their destination is the old-fashioned red barn and grass strip up the road. The 22” x 17.5” prints are available in a Limited Edition size of 300 Signed & Numbered and 30 Artist Proofs. The 25 Framed Giclee Prints on Canvas have an image size of 21.25” x 17.” If paper prints are framed, it will consist of double mats, Cub patches, plaque, and a wood frame. [ More Information ]

"J3 Morning" is another incredible Cub picture by Sam. This one captured the audience at Sun 'n Fun 2009 when it was unveiled.

J3 Morning
SOMETHING DIFFERENT! This striking view of a 1946 Cub shows Sam's talent at its best. As the sunlight creeps in the hangar, it turns the Piper into polished gold. You can see every single detail of the J3 as she waits for her pilot to wake up and get her in the sky. This print was named through a “Name the Painting” contest held at Sun 'n Fun 2009 where the original was unveiled. You'll be captivated by the playful shadows and slightly magical mood. The 16” x 20” prints are available in a Limited Edition size of 400 Signed & Numbered; 40 Artist Proofs; and 25 Giclee Prints on Canvas. If framed, it will consist of double mats, Cub patches, plaque, and a wood frame. A large size Print on Canvas (28" x 22" image size ... the size of the original) is also available.

"Read Back Correct" was commissioned by the Air Traffic Control Association and puts you inside a control tower. It's a unique perspective of a crucial aviation job.

Read Back Correct
SAM'S FIRST CONTROL TOWER VIEW! The Air Traffic Control Association commissioned Sam to paint an original that honors the men and women who keep airplanes flying safe. That was the start of “Read Back Correct.” The name of the print is a phrase heard by every pilot flying IFR out of any airport in the country. The view – from inside a control tower -- is one you seldom see in a print. Wherever you look there are unexpected details to discover. The Dekalb Peachtree Airport in Atlanta was used for reference by Sam. The original hangs in ATCA headquarters in Alexandria, Va. The 15” x 22.5” prints are available in a Limited Edition size of 300 Signed & Numbered. If framed, it will consist of double mats, plaque, and a wood frame. [ More Information ]
