Jay Livery is a celebrated airbrush artist.  He paints everything from motorcycles to murals, and was featured on The Discovery Channel. When I got the assignment to photograph him for a magazine article, I knew I wanted something really colorful.

His studio made the perfect backdrop for this portrait shot of Jay. I used two portable strobes to fill in the light in the foreground and background.
