Black Cat

SEPECAT Jaguar GR.1, RAF Coltishall, 16 (R) Squadron, 1994
20 x 30 inches (86 x 60 cm) oil on linen.
Private collection

This painting is an attempt to capture the intricate reflections in the striking gloss black colour scheme of this charismatic jet. Although not technically accurate, this scheme was applied to an airframe used by the No1 School of Technical Training at RAF Cosford to ‘reflect’ the famous ‘Saint’ Jaguar display aircraft used in the late 1990s.

The original oil painting was exhibited and sold at the 2017 Guild of Aviation Artists’ Annual Exhibition at the Mall Galleries in London.
