First day w/airbrush

Well, I practiced for a few hours with the airbrush, went through lots of paper making dots, flames, lines, etc., using black paint. I tried a stencil I made on the rock shown below with a few different colors, but the tape stuck to the rock and left a bunch of white sticky marks. It looks horrible, but I tried! lol

I made a stencil for the black and grey flames on paper, too. Tomorrow I'll see if I can get those marks off the rock with water. I knew it was going to be really tricky on a round surface. I think I have some ideas that might solve my problem, though. I know it's going to take a few months before I get proficient, but I did alright on my first day.

Tomorrow I have appointments to go to, so I don't know if I'll make it back early enough to be in the studio. Bye for now.
