Rapid Pro: Airbrush Certification 101 Basics

Learn the essentials of airbrush operation and care in this hands-on, beginner-friendly class and TinkerMill Members can gain independent access to our airbrush station. Perfect for anyone new to airbrushing, this approximately 1/2 hour session will teach you the basic parts and operation of a dual action airbrush, how to use an airbrush without damaging it and how to properly clean and maintain our equipment. Gain confidence and skills to keep our airbrush in top condition for all! You don't have to be a Member to take this class and learn about airbrushing. Look at the Certification PLUS class instead if you would like a longer session to learn more about masking and additional techniques! *If this class or the PLUS class are full, or just not at a good time for you - please reach out to the instructor, Mark Chamness, about possibilities for accommodations.
