New Form Of Art With The Use Of Airbrush

By Lila Bryant


Creativity does not stick to one method of producing art. This is exactly why, in the world of visual art, there are various fields. Those who are good with a knife utilize their expert whittling skills in the creation of stunning 3D models and statues. Those who are good at working with the good old earth use clay to make their masterpieces. Also, there are those gifted with the uncanny ability to mix colors to create a scene using only airbrush Orlando.

These people who work with paints are called painters. They play with colors to create majestic works of art. Most of them do it just to while away the time, and some do it for a living. There are many types of painters, too. Painting encompasses a wide reach, so their works are grouped conforming to the medium that was being used.

There are various mediums in painting. Perhaps the most heard about is the oil based method. This makes use of linseed oil boiled with resin such as pine and even frankincense. They were noted for their superb body and gloss effect.

The most acknowledged painting medium is constituted with oil. Oil paintings are perhaps the most expensive ones in the world of art, as they are so tricky to make. To be able to have oil paints, artists of the older times had to boil linseed oil with frankincense or pine resin before mixing in the coloring pigments. They took forever to dry up, but the glossy effect they produce is absolutely stunning.

Pastel sticks are made by combining the same color pigments with a binder that has low saturation and neutral hue. This makes pastel art slightly paler than all the others. Watercolor, on the other hand, has been used in even the earliest years of Korean, Chinese, and Japanese art. Admittedly, though, these Asian artists used the water soluble medium in monochrome brown and black, mainly for calligraphy.

For artists who are working with tighter schedules, the best option for them is the acrylic paint medium. This dries faster than all the other methods, making it the perfect choice for express orders. When diluted properly, acrylic painting can pass off as oil painted piece.

There are also more modern mediums, such as aerosol paint which is common for street graffiti art. Way back in the earlier years, graffiti was considered as a form of vandalism, but since this art grew more beautiful and gave life to otherwise dull walls, it is now regarded as a unique form of self expression. Some manufacturers even produce paints that are made specially for the graffiti artist.

In the same manner as spray painting, airbrushes also employ the same mechanism, although they are made on the body of automobiles rather than walls. If you want to give your ride a brand new look, you can do that by airbrushing. To do this, you will need topcoats of either acrylic or enamel paint, some newspapers, sandpapers, paint thinners, safety equipment, and spray gun or air brush.

First you will have to wash your car and clean it thoroughly. After drying, you can sand the surface to bare metal. Once done, you will have to wipe the body with clean cloth and apply some thinner. You may start coloring in the body once the thinner has completely dried off. Though it may take some time to complete the task, you will be able to save a lot. The heady feeling of self satisfaction comes as a bonus.
