Horham 2018
Painting by Mark Erickson
13" x 13" (33cm x 33cm)
acrylic on wood panel
inspired from Horham Airfield, England

This one is dedicated to my father, Lt. Ernest Anders Erickson. He would have liked it, though probably would have said, maybe a bit more of the Quonset Hut from Horham. He had a good eye.

Photographs of Horham's front gate entrance and Quonset Hut are below.

Thanks goes to Wyn Harrison of Deeping St James, Lincolnshire, England for the photographs of Horham. Lincolnshire is known as bomber county, due to the many Royal Air Force and 8th Air Force air bases that were spread across this area.

Wyn is a fantastic supporter of the Royal Air Force and 8th Air Corps veterans and their airfields in England. She has been to many of the existing bases and visited Horham in 2017, accompanied by Royal Air Force Warrant Officer Harry Irons DFC, when she took these images.
