GRIZZLY AIRBRUSH - AIRBRUSH HORROR PAINTING
STEP-BY-STEP - Davide Salvadori

Hi, my name is Davide Salvadori, aka Grizzly Airbrush. I am an airbrush artist living and working in Bardolino (Verona - Italy). I do customizations of various kinds, and my favorite style is Horror! Like many, I started my journey working on helmets and motorcycles, but for the past few years, I have been developing and studying my technique for working with airbrush on clothing. In addition, I create original works and paintings on canvas and other surfaces as well! This painting is the first of a collection representing various mental disorders, reworking famous works in horror, painted entirely by airbrush!

INTRO: This painting was born with the idea of sensitizing a very delicate subject, psychic disorders. To make it, I took a famous work and reinterpreted it in Horror style, painting it entirely with an airbrush.

STEP 1: I prepared my image on the PC, a draft, of course, from which I could start to create my work. Once printed, I cropped out some key points, such as eyes, nostrils, etc., so as not to lose the right proportions of the 'image; this is a step I always do for any realistic photo. From this point, I can start working, as in this case, I am sketching the skin textures with a light color, then working by overlays.

Step 2: Having created the skin base, which has a very special effect as we create a monster, I continue by adding color tones. I am including them now as they will be part of the skin base. For the best work, we need to create a wide range of colors and overlay them to make excellent shades and gradations. For example, if we are working with a yellowish pink, we need to create lighter and darker shades of the same pink to achieve areas of shadow and light and create realistic textures. A very common mistake is to use black and white directly to make these transitions, but you will not get the correct effect.
