Philip John Evett (England / Ireland / Texas, 1923-2016), organic abstract ink drawing with flying machines, architecture, natural forms, signed and dated lower right, and signed to verso, dated January 2010 at lower right, with Evett's own numbering system "65."; in custom Hunt Gallery frame (San Antonio, Texas), from a larger series of flying machines ink drawings

sight: 13.5 x 10 in., frame: 22.5 x 19 in.

Note: Evett is not known to have produced any print reproductions of his work; close study of the drawing reveals indentations from pressure of hand-drawn lines, rather than uniform flatness achieved from lithography

Provenance: Property from a home in San Antonio, Texas; work is accompanied by San Antonio Express-News article clipping from 2011, "Ingrained Artistry" about Evett and his work; which mentions "fantastical flying machines still appear in his drawings" following Evett's service as a gunner in the Royal Air Force during World War II
