How to Paint Elephant Skin | Creating 31 Animals in 31 Days #6

Ever wonder how on earth you create wrinkly skin? All those lines and details building up to such texture can be overwhelming. Watch how I create elephant skin and learn my tricks!

This painting took me 6.5 hours to complete as part of my January challenge to paint an animal each day and document it on video for you.

Currently, I am now working on a fluffy fox for #7! It is almost complete, and I am hoping to finish #8 humpback whales also today, and hopefully, my painting numbers can begin to match my dates again lol
