I think I saw some how-to articles online and how-to videos on You Tube. I'm no artist, so I'd never try it. Gorgeous, though!

Maybe even more mysterious to the artist. I'm an artist myself and can assure anyone that I have no idea where it comes from. All I know is that doing art is a compulsion that comes form within, but where within isn't possible to know.

Maybe that why it's call the Divine Spark. Maybe that exactly where it comes from.
