SO WHERE DO WE GET OUR IDEAS FOR AIRBRUSHING? AIRICONS AIRBRUSH TUITION.
So the Question is how do we stay Original?
My wife like all our wives is a proficient or in my case, prolific, camera user. She has smoke coming off a finger with the speed of her photography. We have pictures of everything ranging from the smallest bug to the largest building. So why is it so important? We all need inspiration. Looking at what other people have done can be just that. Inspiration. But when we copy other people’s artwork that is plagiarism. Ask anyone who airbrushes true flames where they get their inspiration? Well it certainly isn’t from copying someone else’s work… you’ll find that we all use references and in my case - my wife’s pictures of fire or our last BBQ. That is a story for another time.
Plagiarism:
Taking someone’s artwork and passing it off as your own.

WALTER CUETO
I was accepted to Art & Design where, at the time, we had to take four periods of art. I fell in love with the airbrush and never put it down since 1988. Fast forward to today, and I continue my education, I attempt to take yearly airbrush classes, in order to improve and grow.
