J.C. Leyendecker compilationYou all fancy with yo high-steppin' and four legs and shit.

I love seeing this illustration-in-progress by J.C. Leyendecker. It reminds me that all masterpieces take time and effort and mistakes and edits and persistence. And it reminds me of the quote by Aristotle, ""We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit."
