An airbrush as used for a media delivery system comprises an air pressurizer, a power source and a media reservoir integrated into a single hand held device. The air pressurizer comprises a pump and motor assembly delivering pressurized air by way of first and second air conduits to a nozzle. The media is stored in a detachable reservoir housed within the device and provided with a liquid conduit for conducting the media to the nozzle.
