AIRBRUSH INSTRUCTOR DAVID
MORTON

David R. Morton 42, has been
teaching airbrush for the past 14 years and airbrushing a total
of 20 years. He was in the U.S. Navy for 3 years and
the reserves for three more. After the Navy, David finished
art school and found that you either teach art or you sell it,
but airbrush allowed both. Academia was too structured for
the flair that David wanted to incorporate in not only his
own artwork, but in his teachings. David was inspired by
the great airbrush talent of an artist in Indianapolis named David
Crowe. David Crowe was a pioneer in airbrush to say the
least. He took airbrush artwork into the fine art realm
which sparked a passion for not only a new way to
think about airbrush, but also how to instruct it.
David has always felt that if you truly love something, then you
will find a way to make it work in your life,you will encompass
an unbridled unsolicited passion, and nothing will stop
you. David has taught a high
school airbrush program for
many years, ran many getaways and taught at local
and international art store chains. David has always
tried to set a higher standard for the airbrush skill
beyond t-shirts and flames on cars. He incorporates faux
concepts, glass, portraiture, 3 dimensional animation,
illustration, and signage concepts. David has airbrushed
t-shirts in dance clubs for many years and had his own art
department in a very popular retail chain, taught for General
Motors, Ivy Tech State College, and even been hired as a
muralist for a very popular company in California and Florida.
Every since David has started teaching, he has always had a
passion to get people to change the way that they think
about airbrushing and feels that through his efforts will
eventually galvanize a sense of appropriation for the fine
art community and artisans alike. David's road toward success in
airbrush continues with the grace of God as he constantly
sees new and promising roads and opportunities
on many diverse substrates and mixed mediums.
