I love the Moai, is there any special secret to painting on velvet?

A while back, I drove Eric Askew to the Leeteg Tribute Show @ Copro Nason. Eric was with Leeteg in Tahiti during his times of velvet painting. I asked him " hey mate, what's the secret?" He said, " I promissed I'd never tell". I'm sure in some way shape or form he told me with out telling me. He was excited about the show and chatted in the car all the way up and all the way down. One of these days, I'll get in front of a velvet and see if he brainwashed me during our drive.
