I only have a milk frother, do I have hope?

I apologize if this post has already been made, but I have a couple of questions to combine here.

I've been experimenting with latte art lately, and came to the conclusion that the problem is not the technique of my pour, but the consistency of the milk (not silky but foamy, so it just sits on top of the coffee immediately creating a blob the size of the whole cup)

My question is, do I have any hope of achieving the right consistency with a normal frother (like, the IKEA one, a wand with a thingy that spins on the bottom)?

I'm using Barista oat milk, but I'm willing to try with cow milk if you guys tell me that the problem is not the frother but the vegetable milk ahaha

Thank you!!
