OK. Some examples from the top of my head.
https://www.artstation.com/artist/maniaks - This is the illustrator I was mentioning. I don't really know how is he working now so I might be wrong.
http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthr...LY/page565 - Bjorn Hurri sketchbook thread from CA.org. Studies are 1% of stuff he posted on daily basis. The rest is just fun doodles.
http://mv.cgsociety.org/ - He mentioned that only recently he started painting more from life but from what I remember during CA.org days he barely had any studies in his sketchbook. Only speedpaintings from imagination.
http://www.sparth.com - In the beginnings of CA.org forums Sparth had thread where he posted a speedpainting a day. I saw maybe one or two posts with watercolors from life. The rest (99%) was his own personal stuff from imagination.
Just to make things clear. I'm not saying that studies are bad. It just seems like they don't really work for some people or they are good only in the very beginning. In that second case the question becomes when is the good moment to move on into more advanced stuff.
