An elephant can be a but tricky to paint because of the long trunk. I knew I wanted to involve my own nose in the design, and then I found some inspirational pics on Pinterest where the trunk went around the nose and over the upper lip. I found it so clever that I wanted to try it myself! In this video I will show you how to do a ordinary elephant and a more feminine elephant with a bit more circus touch. I used one stroke technique as a base and finished it off with some sponge work and linework. 

I hope you like the video! Happy painting!
