After five years of art study I have grown tired with how heavily I need to rely on reference images. When I asked my art teacher how to improve she told me to grab 5-10 reference images of what I wanted to improve on, sketch the image, create a blind contour of the image, and then sketch the image again. Blind contours may not be pretty but they really help force you to focus on the details and overall proportions of a piece so that you learn what is really there and what is a misconception your brain has created. After all of these I took my new knowledge and did the style meme to see how to best cartoon and simplify those proportions. It really is surprising to see what Leone looks like in the styles of different artists. It has really helped me learn what I liked what I didn't like and what I wanted to keep from my past drawings. With a little more practice hopefully I'll be able to draw papillions from all angles without a reference. Then maybe I can move on to the other breeds.
Onwards and Upwards

Please do give these artists all the love and support you can muster. They are incredibly talented individuals.
