No kidding! But then again, Jim has talents the rest of us can only admire and wish we had.
There is no such thing as a dream that you cannot obtain.
You may have to work for it, however.

That actually takes me completely by surprise. There's nothing wrong with using photo reference so as to become more familiar with a certain subject, but the fact that you're able to put that level of authenticity into the pic without it is pretty darn impressive.
Major kudos!

No, acyually I just remembered how 4 kittens I'd rescued as a teenager had curled together and behaved. And the bonding process that occurs as a result of this interaction may very well be why the girls are so close.
The only time a actually use reference material is if it's a specific image someone wants drawn (like a certain car I'm not familiar with, or a family photo or something). I generally try to stay away from using photos as reference, since far too many artists do that.
