Jay Wright

I started doing airbrushed artwork on conversion vans in 1975. I love doing it and I have always tried to improve my skills with each new job. My formal education is through the University of Wisconsin Parkside and the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design. I studied fine art and illustration over a period of eight years from 1985 to 1995. Anyone interested in pursuing career in airbrush should learn the fundamentals of art first. There are way too many airbrushers out there that try to short cut education and jump right into professional painting for the money. It really shows in their work when they lack basic understanding of composition, color theory and anatomy.

As a company we have painted over 20,000 vehicles since 1975. I am blessed to have my wife and son be a vital part of the business. Donna, my wife was a painter for many years and was very good at it. She still sprays from time to time. My son, Steve has learned the skills of painting and has proven himself as an excellent painter as well.

These days I stick to airbrushing artwork or designing new schemes. We will take customers ideas and picture references and turn them into a composition for just their hood or tailgate or the whole vehicle. We can show them what the job will look like before we actually paint it with the aid of computer technology. We’ve had this technique employed since 1995 and have continually improved on it.

If you are a former customer, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your business. We appreciate your patronage. We always try to give our customers the best value and quality that is possible. Some people say we are more expensive than our competition, but I have never thought so. I believe that the work we do is priced according to quality and value.
