An airbrush is a small, air-operated tool that sprays paint or other liquids through a nozzle. It uses compressed air to create a fine mist, allowing for smooth and detailed application of color. Airbrushes are commonly used in various fields, including art, cosmetics, and automotive painting, due to their ability to produce gradients and intricate designs. The airbrush consists of a trigger mechanism that controls the flow of paint and air. Artists often use different types of paint, such as acrylics or watercolors, depending on their project. The versatility of the airbrush makes it a popular choice for creating detailed artwork and professional finishes.
