About Me

T-Shirts, Hats, Sports Helmets, Bike Parts, Canvases and More. I've added airbrush art to pretty much any surface that would allow since the age of 16. With over 25 years of airbrush experience in the retail world, it was time for a change. In 2016 my career took me into manufacturing, where I get to create customized waterpark and splash pad features for communities across the globe. Some features can be seen locally at Lemmy's Lagoon in Cedar Point, The New Years Eve Walleye Drop in Port Clinton, the YMCA in Mansfield and the Boys and Girls Club in New London. 

In the world of art there's always more to explore, more you can create, more you can design. So that's where Hi 5 comes in. 

We are taking my airbrush skills next level, bigger and brighter. 

Art is subjective. One can love to paint, but dislike drawing. Love to draw, but don't like using pens. I found my passion for an airbrush to be deeper than the mechanism itself. Through years of developing my skills I have been able to achieve things with the airbrush that many cannot believe to be "just" airbrush. I'm able to create textures and soft strokes unlike any other medium and while I may be skilled in my trade, there's always more I'm learning, new techniques, better tools. Airbrushing allows me to continue to grow as an artist.  

For anyone who gets to know me even a little, knows I'm a punny person. Any chance for a play on words and I'm there. Hi 5 is my family and I, the 5 of us and simply saying "HI!" Or Maybe we are asking for a Hi 5 when finishing a project. If it's a high 5 for a simple act of kindness from my wife,  the 5 of us out in the wild or a pat on the back to conclude a project. Hi 5 is up to your interpretation.
