Okay, Mary. You asked for before and afters. I'm sure you didn't mean two versions of the same picture, but here's my contribution.
A friend in another part of the state asked for a portrait of his cat. I did the charcoal (bottom) about 8 months ago, and I still haven't had a chance to visit my friend, so I hadn't delivered it yet. Earlier this week, I looked at it in horror. I was glad I hadn't given it to him. I started over.
Cynthia, sorry for the animal picture, but it's the best example I have of what Mary was looking for.
(The black spot on his nose is true to life. The portrait wouldn't be right without it)
