WAYNE HARRISON
(Artist/ Director)
 

Wayne Harrison has been airbrushing for over 30 years and holds a current Vehicle Certificate to Apply Murals & Graphics on Cars. With his Artworks winning Awards in USA and Australia. Also his artwork has received a lot of  awards for Top Graphics and Airbrush Art (Murals) throughout the automotive shows around Australia e.g. Auto Salon, Motorex  and many others. In the years when Panel vans were big, Wayne's work won many top custom paint awards. His company during these times was called  "FANTASY MURALS" at Blacktown, he was well known to all. His Mentor and close friend is and always will be "Frank Lee" As a young man Frank offered Wayne his future. The advise and support is what has driven Wayne over the years. Which is why Wayne now prides himself on offering the same support and advise to others who ask.

In 1992 Wayne formed his current business Advanced
Airbrush with his wife Joanne, which was built on the cutting edge of airbrushing. Changing all the rules & becoming the leaders of Airbrushing in Australia.

Wayne's next step was to gain recognition for for his      work and to see what the world offered.

In 1995 he entered his first overseas competition "AIRSTORM 95" in Atlanta USA and won 1ST PLACE in the Alternative section.

Wayne and Joanne also started the first Airbrush Expo in 1998, with the desire to get all local Airbrush Artists from all around Australia and New Zealand to unite and support each other, with visiting Atlanta in 95 for the "Airstorm 95" he realised what an asset America had having the support from each other and the chance to drive each other and keep growth growing in this trade. So as they had a financially strong business, they and their company financially supported the show and took a major risk.

In 1999, Wayne and Joanne also started the "National Australian Airbrush Association Inc." the show has now been handed over to the Association to run and organise as it needs to be run by the people for the people, not by one couples ideas and dreams.
