Michele, I just noticed you are in Washington. I'm not surprised that the topography there is similar to that of Maine. Someday I hope to get out there and paint some mountaintop panoramas and aerial views.
Great close-ups, Allan! To answer your question, I am not a pilot. It would be a real trick to paint and not crash the plane. I have to hire pilots to take me in either a single-engine plane or a helicopter, while I take pictures like crazy from the windows. I decide which views I want to paint, at which times of day, and then map out a route for the pilot. Very often there are surprises, like wonderful cloud formations, views on the way to something else, and light-shadow effects.
