| Airbrushologist (an interview) |
||||||||||||||||
| Q: Since I notice most of your portraits are of admittedly gay & female celebrities, may I ask where this fascination comes from? It is rumored you know, that you have been seen with the likes of Martina Navratilova and Janet Reno. Is this true? If not, how do you feel about earlier lesbian paintings, such as the ones drawn by the late Pat Mahgroin? A: Who is gay? I'm putting celebrities behind me now, because they're all ugly. Q: Do you prefer to use air or a brush when you airbrush? Do you strictly use your hands for airbrushing or are other body parts allowed to partake? If so, which ones? Also, do you use any neutralizer's or conditioner's in the brushings? Also, what computer programs do you use? are you a fully licenses airbrushologist? A: I am fully licensed, yes, but only in the state of New Jersey. Q: Have you ever done T-shirts or sock-shirts? What other mediums do you fancy airbrushing on? Also, why are you married? A: Yes I brush T-shirts and bandanas. Naturally, I got married because I needed to register for a new airbrush set, but also because my husband is really hot. Q: What is the largest airbrush you have ever brushed? Have you ever thought of joining a dental firm? I was thinking perhaps you could make money and prevent cavities. How? You may consider using an airbrush instead of a toothbrush? How much do your brushings go for? Do you find animals take to your works of brush? A: My largest brushing was 11x17 feet, but I had to shrink it down to fit on the website. It's been over a year since I've seen the dentist, actually I have to call right now. And of course animals take to my brushings, that's why I do the bandanas. Q: Do you airbrush fully clothed? In quiet or in the company of the masses? How did you get in touch with your web-site cohorts? A: Well my and KK's grandmothers were once best friends, but we met through radio. I played a song that battled all the FCC regulations and KK had me kicked off the air for a day. After I pulled her hair, she asked me if I wanted to start a website. I met Sunday in bumper to bumper traffic. She saw an angry driver slap my sunburn and offered me some Aloe Vera. We've been friends ever since. Q: I have a grandmother who wears a mesh hat with the logo "Swimmer 4 Life" on it, can you airbrush a picture of the new Borgata casino on it? A: I can brush anything. Q: I hear the airbrush industry has historically been a rather sporadic scale. How does this affect your business of airbrush, your creativity, your dedication to the medium? A: My dedication is strong, but I was thinking of moving on to water colors. I think my fans will follow. Q: How do you think the public will respond to your internet-based art? That is, your paintings aren't as transient or tangible as traditional "airbrush" art, such as clothes & license plates at mall kiosks, or fingernails (and here you have yet more variety with acrylic, fiberglass, plastic, etc...) How will you market this as art, and from where did this movement originate? A: I'm really tired. Q: How is it "airbrush" when there is no "air" nor "brush" inside your computer? A: My what? How dare you. Q: On a serious note, do you think you will be known as a pioneer of this type of art? Will this medium survive in cyberspace alone, or will it make its way to the outside world as well? Can you produce this type of art outside of your computer? A: Yes it will, and I can. Here's a question: what will you do with your cat that you are planning to abandon? Do you want me to brush him a bandana that will keep him warm on the cold cold streets? Q: Any last quotes or advice to any young, ugly and lonely girls and boys out there who may want to get into this field? A: Life is dreadfully boring, so when a phase comes over you, you should do it until you get bored again. |
