The Airbrush Getaway: A Good Solution in a Bad Economy

The Airbrush Getaway: Have no Fear
As many of you know, the Airbrush Getaway is coming to the Rio Suite Hotel in Las Vegas, October 17th-21st (a Monday to Friday pattern). In this down economy the Getaway is a great bet for people interested in discovering new ways to make money, regardless your perceived degree of talent.  With the latest, cutting edge technology and techniques (plotters, projectors, stencils, etc) taught, hands-on, the “I can only draw stick figures” argument is a thing of the past.  I can’t even begin to count the number of people who have entered the program with very limited art experience and graduated with the ability to make money immediately.  The Getaway really does work.

A sense of intimidation is also common among newbies; the fear that they won’t be able to keep up, that they’ll slow down the class, and the biggest of all: that they’ll be the only beginner in the group. This perception, however, is not the reality.  In fact, the Getaway was originally intended for beginners, and today it caters to all skill levels, including professional artists.  Invariably, those who do take the plunge are glad they did, experiencing a strong sense of camaraderie and family (it may sound corny, but it’s very true), that the instructors are far more down-to-earth, friendly, and accessible than they imagined, and that they learned more in four or five days than they would in months or years on their own.

For the uninitiated, the Airbrush Getaway is typically conducted in a 16,000 to 18,000 square-foot space, in an open forum where you’re encouraged to check out the other classes.  It is also the World’s largest, most dynamic, and unique airbrush workshop program.

The Getaway offers the following 4-day courses: Photorealism with Dru Blair, Automotive Graphics with Ryno, Power Portraits with Jerry Ott, Ultimate Airbrush Techniques & F/X with Terry Hill (new class), Airbrush Mastery with Gary Worthington, Pin-Up Art with Lorenzo Sperlonga, Murals
on Steel
with Jonathan Pantaleon, Wildlife Art with Denis Mayer (new class), T-Shirt Airbrushing for Fun & Profit, and Airbrush Tanning & Body Art with Lamari Millot.
1-Day classes include: Intro to Airbrush, Intro Automotive Graphics , Intro Murals on Steel, Intro to Pinstriping, and Airbrush Tanning.

Also, if you haven’t yet bought an airbrush and related accessories and equipment, DON’T.   The Getaway will show you exactly what you need for your setup, which can add up to a savings that is probably worth the price of admission alone!  There is no better place to test drive the various airbrush models, spray guns, stencils,
surfaces, paint, etc. before you buy.  In fact, you needn’t bring anything to the Getaway barring a pad and pen for notes; everything is provided for you.

So, if you’re ready to expand your talent, and be a part of the largest paint party in the World, please feel free to call me (yes, I will take your call) at 800-876-2472 or, for international callers, 732-223-7878.  Just say, “Cliff, I read your blog and demand that $50 discount you promised!”

Man charged in home invasion NEWS HERALD STAFF  REPORT

PANAMA CITY BEACH–An Alford man was arrested Wednesday in connection with a  home invasion robbery that happened last year, according to  a Bay County   Sheriff’s Office release.

Arrested was Christopher Shane Harrison, 23.

Authorities said that on Aug. 8, the victim was on the back porch of his home  on Pine Drive when he spotted a man walking along the side of his home toward  the back. The victim confronted the suspect and they wrestled, tumbling into the  home. The suspect had a gun and fired at the victim, grazing him along his head  with the bullet. The suspect pistol whipped the victim and began to ransack the  man’s office, demanding money. The suspect pointed the gun again at the victim  and pulled the trigger. The gun jammed and the victim was able to throw the  suspect from the home. The suspect then fled.

Evidence collected from the scene led investigators to identify Harrison as  the suspect, BCSO said. During questioning, Harrison told investigators he had  committed the home invasion robbery, BCSO said. He was charged with home  invasion robbery with a firearm and aggravated battery.
