Airbrushing

Airbrushing is also called "air painting". This is a type of fine art in which paint is applied to the surface with compressed air using an airbrush or spray can through a stencil. For this purpose, liquid or powder pigments are used. This technique has become widespread: it is used in painting, design, to decorate textiles and even cars. Oddly enough, for the first time this method of creating a drawing was mastered by tribes in Latin America long before the beginning of our era. Primitive craftsmen blew paint through hollow bones onto cavern walls using their own palms as a stencil. The advent of the mechanical airbrush gave freedom to poster and flyer makers.
