CURTIS “Tank” TANKERSLEY

Curtis founded Just Add Paint in 2005 after years of painting part time to help pay for college. (Ironic, when you think about it- so far, not one client has requested a copy of his college diploma….) He took the scenic route through school, involving stops at HACC, a semester abroad in the UK, and time at Lancaster’s own Millersville University. This last stop (finally) culminated in a Psychology degree. Along the way were stints working as a musician, a martial arts school owner / instructor, and work in the field of counseling, as well. Fortunately, the realization that he owed money for a degree he didn’t need for painting was offset by his enjoyment of working with young people with special needs during his several post-school years in his field! While he found this work quite rewarding, he soon realized that he wanted a hands on job, with less time behind a desk. And for this noble reason, Just Add Paint was born! During his rare moments off, Curtis can be found traveling, playing music with The Roustabouts, eating at local small restaurants and spoiling his dog.

RICH “the Closer” WISE

Rich has fit in perfectly since the first day he worked with us! He was originally from Brighton, England, but has also lived in Portugal, and, until recently, Florida. After working with him for the past 3 years, and seeing both his excellent organizational skills and also his extraordinary work ethic, we consider him to be the very best product EVER imported from overseas. Rich is also a professional Sound Technician and Musician by trade. While living in Florida, he performed as a member of the House Band at Pleasure Island at Disney World Resorts in Orlando. (Good luck getting that gig, folks. We won’t even try.) He is currently playing in 472 different bands, 9 nights per week. These music projects include the Very Americans, (whose single can be heard playing at Harrisburg Senators games) and with The Roustabouts, an acoustic project. Both of these groups draw a crowd, and play regularly in the Harrisburg area. When Rich isn’t playing or mixing a live music show, or helping the other members of Just Add Paint learn how to use manly power tools, he can be found spending time with his family. They include Trish, his beautiful wife, and his wonderful children Becca and James. They love to travel together, see new things, and hike any trail they can find!
