Artist Statement Gorilla Airbrush is located in Thousand Oaks, California. I am Michael Burt, creative artist and illustrator. I currently specialize in doing animal portraiture, but I can create realistic reproductions of anything where I have a reference to work from. As an avid underwater videographer and photographer, my self indulgent art tends towards images that include underwater themes. I am available for making creative artwork from scratch as well as making reproductions and improvements to photos.
I can do paintings and illustrations on any non-automotive substrate. As examples, I can paint on:
o T-Shirts (any color)
o Canvas
o Jackets
o Neoprene wetsuits
o Gear bags
o And many more surfaces...
If you want it painted, contact me and feel free to ask. I primarily use an airbrush with acrylic paints, which can generally adhere to anything with proper preparation and clearcoating. Based on my workspace, I can not do appropriate clearcoats for all surfaces, I will let you know if you will be responsible for getting a clearcoat separately. I am able to work with brush, pencil, and pen and ink as well.
I am not a full time artist, contracts are done strictly on a first come first served basis. Lead times and prices for custom pieces will vary based on the request and materials required.
