I have been an artist for longer than that’s been on the market (I think) but the flowers you see on the elephants are indeed that method! Good eye! I started trying that back in the 90’s and liked it very much. I had to not really follow her because I am left handed and have to do it backwards. I just looked at her designs and read her method and went from there.
Ever since I was a kid I always had a crayon or a pencil or chalk or something like that in my hand. I do have a degree in art and design as well as marketing.
