Airbrush Artwork
I was first introduce to an Airbrush in 1985. I was very excited to learn to use this artistic tool, and wasn't disappointed. I never thought of myself as mastering it, but never tired of using the airbrush. Unfortunately, I am typically very limited to time, space and supplies so I haven't done any airbrushing for some time.
