I was just thinking about this the other day. Now with the internet and accessibility to education, the “average” artist from today is leagues more capable in a technical sense than almost anyone from even 100 years ago. You can pick up the basics of character drawing in just a couple years with the right lessons when that would have mostly been trial and error before.
