Basic Airbrush I - Working in Black & White
Designed for the person who has never before used an airbrush or for those who have used an airbrush without success, this time-proven class in basic airbrush has been taught through-out the U.S. Students will learn how to handle and hook up an airbrush, what air sources to use, what materials are compatible, what working surfaces are suitable and their preparation and the simple maintenance procedures that are required. A high-quality Iwata airbrush will be used by students as they render a series of pre-printed exercises while learning the fundamentals of airbrush technique.

Basic Airbrush II - Working in Color
In the afternoon session, students will be introduced to the methods of working with the airbrush in color, both transparently and opaquely, as they develop images on a series of pre-printed exercises. Discussed will be applicable paints, color mixing, paint reduction, development of highlights, glazing technique, working with stencils, friskets and Artool freehand templates, and more. Upon completion, students will have the ability to apply airbrush techniques to their various disciplines—painting, illustration, photo retouching, custom auto/motorcycle art, hobbies and crafts, fingernails, tattoos and more.

Robert Paschal holds a Master of Fine Arts Degree in painting and has taught airbrush technique, acrylic painting techniques, watercolor and pastel workshops throughout the U.S.. He is the author of Airbrushing for Fine and Commercial Artists and co- author of Advanced Airbrush Techniques-The Art of the Dot. Robert has taught thousands of people the fundamentals of airbrush technique in his classes that are geared to artists at all levels. Robert's artwork has been exhibited throughout the United States, and he has received several awards--among them American Artist magazine's Art Masters Award and Airbrush Action magazine's Vargas Award.
