Topic: wet windshield
A lifelong resident of the Pittsburgh area, Lance Maloney is a self-taught, award-winning artist who works in acrylics, photography and digital art.

In addition to multiple awards he’s received, his commissioned and sold works reside locally, as well as in Montana, New Jersey, Vermont, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Nebraska, Colorado and California. Since late 2024, Lance has ventured into the digital art medium, harnessing the power of a rainy day while he drives around town. He has become an expert at turning his photographs into a collection of digital artwork he calls his “Wet Windshield Series.” These images ride the line between landscape photography as well as abstract and Impressionist art. Familiar locales take on a different look and feeling, while retaining their identifiable characteristics and locales.

Speaker: louis Jiran
Topic: From Photography to AI Aviation Art: Bringing Aviation History Back to Life
Louis Jiran is a professional photographer and aviation artist whose work combines a lifelong passion for photography with a deep personal connection to military aviation. A former U.S. Air Force and Air National Guard aircraft mechanic, Louis comes from a family with three generations of aviation history. His father flew the F-102 Delta Dagger as a U.S. Air Force fighter pilot, and his uncle served as a B-24 bombardier/navigator during World War II.
Louis operated a professional photography studio for many years and earned his Master of Photography and Certified professional photography degrees through Professional Photographers of America. His background includes wedding and family portraiture, commercial photography, and photographic competition.
Today, Louis brings those experiences together in Photography by Louis, creating aviation artwork inspired by the aircraft, people, and stories of World War II and military aviation. His current work combines traditional photographic knowledge, historical research, digital editing, and artificial intelligence as creative tools.
His philosophy remains rooted in photography: the technology may change, but lighting, composition, storytelling, and the photographer’s vision still matter.
“A Legacy of Flight — Three generations. One passion for aviation.”
