Summary: While you are probably most familiar with the type of airbrushed materials you come across at a kiosk in the mall on a Saturday afternoon, the air-pressure infused compressor paint sprayer gliding over t-shirts, hats, canvas bags and a wide variety of other surfaces. Typically, the most common place to find an airbrushed work of art is at the mall or state fair, but as the art of graffiti and urban clothing design increase in popularity, we find airbrush techniques being used by a broader group of creative individuals. Likewise, a broader group of people become interested in the art of airbrushing, helping their children learn design concepts and methods for creation as well as teenage art students looking to broaden their range of abilities.
