I visited a blog today theryanstevens.com where I saw the next video… and it prove that everyone can paint… you don’t need your paintbrushes at all.. Just pick up a cup with some paint and you can pour it on… What a beautiful work uploaded by RavelLkeDave, click here below;
My aunt watched the video and told me, that it is exactly how she makes her white and chocolate ring cake… Love chocolate.
