Does anyone know an artist that does nose art drawings?
I want some sketches on paper of famous nose art with
different heads on them.

Thanks,
Owen Miller

Hi Tom, the address comes up as a e-mail, rather than a website.

Randy...nice work, I suspected as such, the art painter looked a bit
overranked as far as artists usually go! I'm sure Don Gentile would be
honoured and amused.
