A testimonial:
Dave Morton's AIRBRUSH CLASS was an
awakening for me.
After knowing the graphic arts thru the
keyboard exclusively for years, the Tactile side of the brain was
rejuvenated. Dave's class can make an Art Beginner feel like he could
do something brilliant AND an experienced graphic artist can be shown
that there's a whole new world.
I've learned a great deal in a short
time and I'd go back for MORE CLASSES in a Heartbeat.
I suggest this class for anyone who
wishes to learn about a new form of expression. Be they Old
Pros or Young Beginners, EVERYONE can learn something from
Dave.

![]() After searching the internet extensively for airbrush classes in my area, the only instructor that I could find was David Morton. I attended his class and was very happy with all aspects of his teaching methods. I was amazed at how easy David made it look. I am the type of person that needs hand on instruction and that’s exactly what he provided. I am very glad that I chose to take David’s class and am looking forward to continuing to expand my airbrushing skills! I would recommend David’s classes to everyone! South

paint, and alot more. You make it fun and I have learned alot.

something you are there to answer my question with out me feeling like an
idiot.
You are a super teacher.
I wish I would have taken your classes sooner. I will be sure to tell
everyone about you.
Keep up the good work.

Hey Dave,
I have done art work most of my life, and wanted to learn how to use an airbrush correctly. Dave's class was the answer. I was very impressed with the skill he has with the airbrush. He seems to be able to do anything with it. Dave has an ability to teach with ease. After I took the first class I decided to sign up for the advanced class. I learned a lot. I would highly recommend Dave's class's to anyone that wants to learn airbrush. Thanks for the experience, Wayne /Noblesville _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
IT WAS 1996, WHEN I GRADUATED
NOT KNOWING WHAT I WOULD BE DOING ENTERING THE
REAL WORLD, LET ALONE THE NEXT DAY. ANYHOW, I WAS STROLLING AROUND, And I figured THAT Airbrush WOULD BE SOMETHING
UNIQUE TO ADD TO MY
EXTENSIVE ARTISTIC TRAINING I HAVE HAD THROUGHOUT SCHOOL. I THINK I WAS PART OF EITHER THE FIRST OR SECOND CLASS HE HAD TOUGHT THERE. AND I CAN TELL YOU THAT I LEARNED AS MUCH IF NOT MORE TECHNIQUE FROM DAVE THAN I DID IN THE 6 YEARS OF FREEHAND DRAWING, AND ART COURSES I HAVE BEEN THROUGH. FROM THE MOMENT I MET UP WITH DAVE AT THE LOCAL BARNES & NOBLE IN 1996 TO THIS CURRENT DAY I HAVE NEVER FOUND ANOTHER ARTIST MORE DEDICATED TO THEIR SUCCESS IN THEIR ARTWORK AND THOSE THAT HE TEACHES. EVENTUALLY I STARTED TO ASSIST DAVE AT HIS WORKSHOPS AS THEY GREW. THERE WAS NOT A CLASS THAT I ATTENDED THAT I DID NOT LEARN SOMETHING NEW, EVEN AS A SECOND HAND ASSISTANT. HE HAS KEPT MOTIVATION CRAWLING DOWN MY BACK FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS THAT I HAVE CONCENTRATED ALL OF MY TIME ON RAISING A NEW FAMILY. TODAY, WITHOUT DOUBT I WOULD NOT BE STRIVING TO ACHIEVE A HIGHER SKILL LEVEL WITHOUT THE CONCERN OF "THE GUY THAT TOUGHT ME HOW TO AIRBRUSH"- DAVID MORTON. I CAN TELL EVERYONE THAT TO THIS DAY I HAVE THE "ALFALFA" PORTRAIT THAT DAVE PAINTED IN THE FIRST HOUR OF MY FIRST LESSON HANGING IN MY STUDIO AS MOTIVATION WHEN I AM WORKING. I AM MOST THANKFUL TO DAVE NOT ONLY FOR THE AIRBRUSHING SKILLS THAT HE CONTINUES TO OFFER, BUT FOR BELEIVING IN ME AND BEING THE FRIEND THAT STRESSES HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO USE MY ABILITIES AND MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF MY LIFE THAT I ENJOY, JUST AS HE HAS ACCOMPLISHED. THANK YOU DAVE!!. RON PICKENS, JR.

Thanks so much for your help
Dave. I was previously introduced to airbrushing when
taking workshops for glass and then again with metal. I would
be introduced to a great way of working and expanding the bar using this
technique but when I tried it outside of the workshop it would
be terrible. It would clog, not go on evenly and generally such
a mess I would just quit. Finally by taking your class I feel in control
of the tool. Now I am excited about airbrushing being the best aid
for my art and including it with other media I am exploring such as
silk. Your class format was the perfect learning method for
me.

Having been involved in art work
for many years I have found it a good idea to interact with artist in
various fields of art.
Exposure to the numerous styles and
mediums available to artist today can be mind boggling. I find it a wise
thing to seek out someone who is experienced in a field of art that you
are interested in acquiring knowledge about. After speaking to David
on the phone I was convinced he was going to be giving a well rounded
class. Well I am now in the 3rd set of classes and still enjoying
every session. David has proven to be a generous with help and ideas
type of instructor. All classes have been informative: normally a
demonstration followed by student working time and concluded with a
critique of the work done in class.
I was so convinced that the classes
would be informative that I talked a non artist into taking the first set
of classes and he was so happy with the work he accomplished that he has
also taken the 2nd and 3rd set of classes.
I am using many of the
techniques taught to enhance painted leather work, fabric painting,
murals, watercolors, decorative painting, wood carvings and am trying to
think of ways to use it in conjunction with cloth doll making.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________ When I started David's
introductory class, I had never used an airbrush. David does a very good
job of teaching students with a diverse artistic skillset. I have taken
all the classes David offers, from introductory to advanced, and he always
keeps the class fun and interesting. What ever you are interested in
painting, from Faux to automotive graphics to portraits, Dave covers them
all. His enthusiasm for airbrushing, kept me wanting to learn more. Thanks
David. I really enjoyed your
classes.

Hey David...
I really appreciate your "hands on"
method of teaching the airbrush class. Your commitment to each of us
students to really assimilate the information is above and beyond
the level of most educators!! Thanks for sharing your
passion.

Thanks David! You are without a
doubt, the best instructor I've ever had. You continue to educate me
long after my class with tips and valuable resources. You also
continue to inspire us with artwork, ideas and even financial advice for
painting for a living. I look forward to each email I receive just
knowing that something exciting is in store.
Thank you,
Deb B.

I took David's classes in 1997 as to
hope for something in which I can make some money on the side and it was
almost like God dropped this guy out of the sky. David is almost like the
Tony Robbins of Airbrush. There will be no stopping his success in this
field. He has an undeniable passion and drive to not only share his
techniques but also his patience is something like I have never seen
before. David adapts well within different personality ranges and seems to
find a way to teach this skill to almost anyone. He is very animated and
very dynamic to say the least. Thanks David.

Our family of four, which includes
myself, my husband, 16-yr. old daughter and 15-yr. old son, all
took the Basic Airbrushing Course taught by David Morton. My
daughter and I had previous art experience, but my husband and son did
not. We all thoroughly enjoyed the classes, and learned many
useful airbrushing techniques. We are looking for areas to develop a
family business, and are excited about the prospects of airbrushing
opportunities. David is a very talented artist, and his teaching
style is effective and professional. His enthusiasm for airbrushing
is contagious! Our family is looking forward to using what we
have learned, and we hope to attend the Advanced classes.
We highly recommend David Morton!
Sincerely, Deborah Osborne
and family

A children's book I had illustrated had
just been published in Dec. 2006, and I was working with the author to
create kids furniture to compliment her characters. I needed
something to bring my work up a notch...make it look more
professional. I found David's brochure while researching airbrushes
for sale and thought maybe this was the answer. However, I had no
idea what I was going to get into and was extremely intimidated.
That quickly changed! What fun! Day One Dave dispelled
the nerves and, while it was clear there was a lot to learn, he
immediately put the class at ease and made us feel like we could do
this. Who knew there were so many things that can be done with an
airbrush! Way beyond my initial idea of children's
furniture! And who knew there was so much to learn! I am
convinced that without David's particular classes, his method of teaching,
and his way of simplifying a complex process, I would never have seen all
the possibilities and would probably have stopped before I even
started. On top of that, he is very enthusiastic and constantly
demonstrates his willingness to help his students succeed in class and
outside of the classroom. It does not matter if they are a
professional corporate manager just in there to have fun, or if they are
on a serious quest for a professional creative career such as
myself. The classes I have taken so far have included students with
the age range of 12 to 50+, and David is very encouraging to the
younger and more shy members in the class as well as we older (and
possibly more intimidated) ones. David is the type of teacher who
keeps an eye on his students and steps in when needed no matter the skill
level of the student. The classes are intense learning, but he keeps
it moving and keeps it fun and keeps us coming back for more!
Needless to say, I am a fan and have a high appreciation for what he does
and the patience in which he does it! Thanks, Dave!

My name is Loyd Davis and I am artistically challenged. I've appreciated many artistic mediums throughout my life from comic book art to custom hotrod and motorcycle paint to grafitti and tattoo. Over the last year I've had a custom sleeve tattooed. During the process I became mildly obsessed with tattooing and came to wish that I had followed a more artistic path and developed the skills necessary to enter into an apprenticeship. Realizing that it would take far too long to acquire said skills, and not wishing to become the world's oldest tattoo apprentice afterward, I started thinking about other artistic outlets. Airbrushing seemed like a good bet considering my interests. Enter David Morton and Airbrushclasses.com. I spotted David's flyer one day and called. Through messages and e-mail I learned that in airbrushing even the artistically challenged like myself can turn out good results. And that is precisely what happened week after week as I would follow David's excellent instruction and surprise myself with quality results. The class was well paced and information was presented in a very straightforward easy to understand manner without any fancy artsy jargon; the atmosphere was friendly and fun. I would freely recommend David's classes to anyone with even a casual interest in learning to airbrush and will definitely be attending his advanced class myself. Thanks Uncle Dave, I'm hooked! _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ | |||
