\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Aline as a little girl was called by her first and second names (Aline Rhonie and\/or AlRhonie; her mother\u2019s family was of Southern derivation).\u00a0 Later, still a child, she acquired the nickname of \u2018Pat\u2019 which carried through her married years.\u00a0 However, as an adult, Aline Rhonie became her legal name and professional signature.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0She was born to a life of luxury and enjoyed outdoor activities, especially horseback riding.\u00a0 She was quite the equestrian, competing in many events.\u00a0 Her grandmother encouraged her to follow her artistic talents and for many years she studied with the American painter, John Sloan (1871-1951).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Roosevelt Field in Garden City, New York, known as the \u2018cradle of aviation\u2019, inspired Aline to create a huge fresco mural in Hangar F, depicting the great pioneers and first conquerors of the mystery of flight: \u2018Early Birds 1908-1916: The Pre-Lindbergh Era of American Aviation\u2019. Aline, at the invitation of the famous Mexican muralist, Diego Rivera, flew to Mexico City to learn the techniques to paint the fresco. She, in turn, taught him some techniques she had learned from noted painter John Sloan (tempera). She worked on the fresco mural (106\u2019 x 12.5\u2019, windows excepted) from 1935-1938. It was in two parts: Early Birds 1 and 2 and was removed when the airfield was sold and the hangar was torn down.
