Eric Ravilious was also an Official War Artist and in this first bit of research about him I found this quote from this guardian article.

"Even when he became an official war artist, he tended to domesticate any novelty or threat – fighter planes line up harmlessly beyond a garden hedge, and barrage balloons bob cheerfully in the sky"
