is the ideal author to share with new and experienced airbrush
artists what he’s learned in a lifetime of airbrush work.
Harris’ new book starts with a little history, how he and
a small group of his peers began to use the airbrush without
any masks to paint T-shirts, motorcycles, hot rods and human
any masks to paint T-shirts, motorcycles, hot rods and human
bodies. Next comes Harris’ take on what makes a good
airbrush, followed by some of the strokes that make up the
foundation of any good airbrush painting. The chapter titled:
How to Make a Living with an Airbrush, is Mickey’s version of
Business 101 for airbrush artists.
The rest of the book is given over to 12 airbrushing
sequences. Each one starts with a sketch and ends with a
completed mural or graphic painted on a panel, a truck or
maybe a hot rod. Mickey’s captions explain each image: how
he mixes paint to achieve the best viscosity, how the airbrush
itself is adjusted, and how he blends the colors to create
those beautiful fades.
Over 400 images spread across 144 pages, with
Mickey’s fi rst person captions, help make this book the next
best thing to a one-on-one seminar with Mickey in his own shop.
