G'day.
Most people call me Dizzy (well, the ones that know me) and I am quite happy that that name wasn't taken already (ahhh, the small things in life). I'm from the south western coast of Australia ( the place is called Albany).
About a year ago a friend of mine and his mother invited me to a weekend airbrushing workshop where we were living. Loved it. Then, after telling my family that I enjoyed it and wouldn't mind doing it more at some point in the future, I received an airbrush (brand unknown - bulk e-bay type I was led to believe. Can't find a brand name on anything and all the parts list say as to allude to it's origins is: Model Airbrush; Specifications 134 134A 134B 134C 134D 134E...) a small, quiet compressor and a set of Trident paints. Then for my birthday an easel as well. I was over the moon but have have not had a lot of time to play with things.
I'm in a rented house and considering trying to paint inside as the weather is not great most of the times, let alone in winter.
Now I'm wanting to learn and have some time. Ultimately, I'd like to be able to reproduce photos in both black and white, and colour as well as come up with original pieces. I'm loving the candy works I've seen about. I've been considering purchasing Daniel Powers DVDs and looking at the Airbrush Venturi courses. (Although to do the courses I'd need to travel 4 hours every Saturday to the capital city for 7 weeks to complete 1 unit)
I suppose, I just love almost everything I've seen done by AB and want to be able to do it to a high quality as well. Every one has dreams. Haha.
Outside of that, I'm not too sure where to begin. OK, picking the AB up and spraying paint throughout the house, I get that. I like knowing that I'm working to some sort of structure to achieve improvement and just playing doesn't feel productive.
Look forward to moving forward with everyone.
