Photorealistic Digital Airbrush Illustration in Photoshop

Monday, October 29th, 2007

Here is a photorealistic digital airbrush painting I made based on a picture of my younger daughter Ashley.
She is wearing her eccentic, international man of mystery grandfather’s white rockstar sunglasses.

I created most of the masks in Illustrator before I started painting in Photoshop.

While I was working on this piece, I thought back to the days when I would have had to cut each mask out of Friskfilm, wait for the layers to dry, and constantly wash out my airbrushes to make sure that the colors didn’t mix. I still have several of my old airbrushes in my studio, but they are purely ornamental at this point. I love Photoshop! Who would have thought back then that one day you could do the same job, without a mask, compressor, paint, brushes, mess, and ripping your hair out if you made a mistake or if your original got lost or damaged.
