New Art A’comin’

Like many artists, I don't exactly get to work in luxurious surroundings all the time. Unfortunately, because of the occasional mess and odors from the materials used (and a lack of extra rooms in my house), airbrushing is relegated to a generous part of the garage on a custom-built mobile platform. This means that I'm at the mercy of the temperature gods.
Airbrushes are famous for allowing you to paint with just about any paint, ink, dye, or whatever provided you can thin it down enough to shoot. While I have my preferred support for fine art, a stickier situation arises when considering supports for practice. Finding a balance between quality and economy can be tricky.
I sent my late-70s-era airbrush back to Badger to get refurbished. A few weeks have passed and I've just received it back. Here's what I think.
It's been a while since I've done a straight-up scratchboard piece. Even I get into the habit of dipping into the color well, so it's a very pleasant change when I go back to the nibs, pins, and erasers of plain ol' black & white scratch work.
