To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Learjet brand, Flexjet partnered with Jet Art’s Princess Tarinan von Anhalt to create one-of-a-kind modern art pieces at West Palm Beach Airport yesterday using the powerful jet blast from a Learjet 45XR as an $11 million dollar “paintbrush.”
Von Anhalt hurled paint into the force of the Learjet’s 3,500-pound-thrust Honeywell TFE731 engine while standing about 50 feet between the Bombardier airplane and her canvas. The heat and velocity from the engine blended the paint onto the canvas, creating unusual abstract paintings.
