Airshow

Thomas Chapman studied glass art at Ohio University followed by eight years of study in the Colorado and California glass studios. Returning t his hometown he established the first glass blowing studio in Dayton, Shiloh Hotglass. Chapman has participated in many art glass workshops including the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York. Chapman has award winning glass pieces in many private collections as well as the permanent collection at the Dayton Art Institute. The drawing etched into the Uplift Vessel was done by Dan Patterson, under the inspiration of wife Cheryl, whose interests are in promoting aviation as an artform and life-style. "Airshow" was inspired by the photograph of an airshow performer flying an Extra 300 made by Dan Patterson, from the book, "The Aviation Century".

 


    
     

"Our goal at the outset was to make new color images of the icons of aviation. The famous which reside in the great museums of the world, but also the hidden treasures which are found in the smaller and off the beaten path collections. Some of these subjects have been unavailable to be photographed for decades."
