Dear Readers
I first got into art when I was born 😜. It started as a hobby. Now it is a big part of my life. Art is my identity. People around me always encourages my art.
I practice art almost every day and still finding my art style.
The art style is extremely important for an artist. It reflects a unique personality to your art.
Many famous artists have created extremely recognizable works of art.
You would probably recognize one of Leonardo da Vinci’s sketches or a bright and textured Van Gogh painting as soon as you saw them
But the works of famous artists aren’t just familiar because they are famous. Each of these artists has a unique style that they developed throughout their artistic journey.
But how do we find our art style?
I hope after reading this article it will help you to find your art style.
Tips to finding your Art Style
Find an artist you admire the most

Many artists have companions that they admire and whose styles they find inspiring. Ere trying to find your own art style, try finding at least 10 other artists with an art style you like.
It will create a mood board for your art reference. Use it for inspiration and study when practising your own art style.
Keep a record of your art

Let’s start by putting all the art stuff you have worked on. Try to find a similar or unique pattern in your art. And discover what you most often paint or draw.
When I looked at my previous work, I found the vibrant colours, faces, fantasies, and ocean. It doesn’t have to be exhaustive, and you can expect it to change, but for now, just have a couple of favourite subjects in mind so you have a starting point.

Practice!
We didn't bear with perfection, only practice can achieve that. “Just practice!” is the universal advice that all artists have heard, but that’s because it is the truth. You can practice drawing in a specific art style just like you can practice any other technique or skill.
If you are having a hard time staying motivated, doing an art challenge such as the 30 day character challenge might give you the extra boost you might need.
Challenge yourself

As you create more artwork, you may find that the style you’ve been using is growing old or that you’re interested in something else.
Always go with your instinct! Never be afraid to break away from a style you’ve been using for a long time.
Share your work

It can be scary to put your work out there, but the feedback that you get from the art community can help you take your artwork to the next level.
Posting your art on social media or art sharing websites can help other artists provide feedback while also helping you build a trusted community. Sharing your work can allow you to see the piece through new eyes and help you grow as you tackle new projects.
Sharing your work can open you up to a whole new world of artistic styles, as it allows you to discuss methods with other artists and ask questions.
Maybe you’ve been struggling with the perspective on a piece, or you just can’t get that arm to look quite right. Sharing your works in progress and asking for help can take some of the pressure off of you and give other artists a chance to share what they know.
It helps build trust, build community, and can ultimately help you develop a strong and more recognizable art style.
❤ Now I want to hear from you!
