| There are several reasons to commission a Neil
Hipkiss original work. Foremost is Neil's talent for
getting things right. I am extremely picky about details
and correctness and in these critical fields Neil is on
par with the other masters of historical aviation art.
Second is his friendly nature and his efforts to
communicate with the collector to ensure that what he
produces meets expectations. Finally, Neil Hipkiss works
are easily the best value for money I have seen in over
twenty years of collecting fine aviation art. Thanks to
Neil my future art expenditures will be for Hipkiss
originals, not for what now seem like grossly overpriced
prints from other artists. Colin Saunders (Canada) |

Commissioned Oil Painting Neil, My wife Fiona commissioned a painting from you of a Mk9 Spitfire for my 50th Birthday. I unpacked it today and I was completely blown away. It is fantastic and now holds pride of place in our living room. I just wanted to thank you for producing such a wonderful atmospheric painting for me, I will treasure it always. Many thanks. |

Dear Mr Hipkiss, Many thanks for the excellent Spitfire print, despatched in the large tube. It's always a pleasure to find that one is dealing with people who do business in a professional way! ...I shall look forward to receiving my 2nd print. Once again, thank you both for the prompt service. Yours sincerely, |

1 of 3 Commissioned Oil Paintings "Neil's painting brings back such vivid memories of that particular event. I can even remember the exact time this image was recorded as a result of his true likeness of the occasion." Kevin C Stevens - English Rally Champion (Group N) |
| Commissioned Oil Painting Neil, If I didn't express it enough previously, let me say, 'I love this painting', you did a fantastic job capturing an eventful experience for me, like my wife, Peg, says the aircraft just looks like it's about to fly out of the canvas. I never tire at looking at it... which is a lot. Thank you again. Darryl |

Painting Dear Neil, Thanks very much for the latest images. It looks wonderful. The lighting is exactly what I had in mind, and the children's are superb, it is hard to believe it was done from a photo as not only are the faces/hair etc. exactly right, but also the unquantifiable things such as the way they walk etc. So many thanks, I am delighted thus far. Dear Neil, Many thanks for delivering the picture on Saturday. It is lovely, and I am sure it will be a hit come Christmas day! So very many thanks indeed. Many thanks, and best wishes. |
