Do not underestimate the power of "muscle memory" and simply teaching yourself not to "quilt yourself into a corner". I did 99.99% of my practicing on a giant pad of newsprint (18" x 24" size) You can pick them up at any art supply shop. If you have a local newspaper they will often give you the ends of rolls. I used pencils, highlighter markers, crayons, Sharpies. I drew the design over and over again in all directions. By the time I got to my LA I could easily duplicate the design with pretty much the same amount of effort and thought it takes to sign my name. You don't always have to practice on the real thing. An erasable white board or huge pads of paper and pencil will work wonders in your LAing ability. I am proof!
