Geoff Hunt, RSMA,
devoted himself to maritime painting full time after returning from a year's
sailing abroad in 1980. His work is now represented in many permanent and private
collections worldwide, notably at the Royal Naval Museum at Portsmouth, who
purchased a large series of his historical studies. More recently he has been
in demand for aviation subjects. 'A Grand Aircraft' was commissioned to
represent a particular action involving Hurricane P3175 which is now a major
exhibit at the RAF museum at Hendon, London.
