The New Hengeveld Galleries We have been working very hard making various changes within Ed's Art Gallery. You will note that there are now three separate galleries of Ed's work with all of the prints offered now being the same size as Ed' s original art work. We feel that this is a monumental accomplishment as having off size photographs developed is very difficult indeed. The cost to do this has been the main obstacle in the past, however, this problem has been sorted out and we feel that we are now offering these very high quality prints of Ed's fantastic art at very reasonable prices. You will find the links to the new galleries below the introduction of Ed and his gallery. Thank you for visiting Ed's gallery. Both Ed and I hope you enjoy the viewing. |
| Ed Hengeveld is a space flight historian who lives with his wife and son in the Netherlands, where he works for Dutch television news. He has written numerous articles for magazines such as Spaceflight and Quest, as well as for various Dutch magazines. |
| His interest in space flight began with the Apollo-8 mission around the moon in 1968 and has grown ever since. In 1981 he was at the Kennedy Space Centre to witness the launch of STS-1 and he was also present at the Dryden Flight Research Centre when Columbia landed there two days later. While at Dryden, he also met various people involved in the X-15 and lifting body programs, resulting in a special interest in this area of flight research. |
| Ed is a member of the British Interplanetary Society. In his spare time he enjoys painting, especially scenes from the Apollo program. His paintings have been published in various magazines around the world and his portrait of the twelve moon-walking astronauts ("Moonwalkers") earned him praise from Apollo-12 lunar module pilot Al Bean, who is himself an artist. Moonwalkers is now an official NASA photograph assigned NASA No. S95-14663. |

Ed's wonderful detail and vantage point perspectives gives us outstanding views of familiar images. Astronauts John Glenn, Dick Covey and Story Musgrave own portraits of themselves painted by Ed. |
