Artist's Description
In Greek mythology, Icarus is the son of the master craftsman Daedalus. The main story told about Icarus is his attempt to escape from Crete by means of wings that his father constructed from feathers and wax. He ignored instructions not to fly too close to the sun, and the melting wax caused him to fall into the sea where he drowned.
For as long as time existed, man has dreamt of flying. This is just one of the many fanciful inventions in history for human-powered flight, mimicing the wings and tail of a bird to create a wearable flying machine. This US patent was issued to inventor R J Spalding in 1889. It would make an amazing fine art gift for an aircraft pilot, an engineer, inventor, or anyone who dreams of flying (as I do!)

About Nikki Marie Smith
I am an artist, a mother, and an entrepreneur. I'm passionate about music and color and seek to convey the transformative power of music through my paintings. My artwork and tutorials have been regularly featured in Cloth Paper Scissors and Cloth Paper Scissors PAGES magazines. I am following my passions and creating art that I love for the sheer joy of it! I hope it resonates with you as well. Exciting news! My self-portrait, "Music Was My First Love" won the juried 2021 Billboard Contest sponsored by Fine Art America, and is featured on a giant billboard in Houston, Texas. If you see it, let me know. For a glimpse behind-the-scenes and to see more of my artwork, including my newest pieces, works in progress, tutorials and more,...
