Your art style isn’t missing.
It’s not hiding.
It’s not something you “find.”
It’s something you build.
Here’s how to develop your own unique art style — for real.
Style is not a destination.
It’s a byproduct of making a lot of art.
The more you create, the more patterns start to appear.
Your choices become habits.
Your habits become style.
Stop trying to force originality.
You don’t need to be “totally different.”
You just need to be honest.
Draw what excites you. Your weird, wonderful taste is your edge.
Your influences matter.
Study the artists you love—not the ones you think you “should” like.
Break down what draws you in:
– Lines?
– Shapes?
– Color palettes?
Steal like an artist, then remix.
Style = choices under pressure.
When you need to draw fast, or simplify, or work from memory—what do you keep? What do you ignore?
That’s your voice taking shape.
Experiment on purpose.
Try drawing:
– The same character in 5 different ways
– With only 3 colors
– Using 1 brush
– Like your favorite artist
Push boundaries. Then see what sticks.
Your style will change. And that’s good.
Art styles are alive.
Let it evolve as you evolve.
Don’t cling to an aesthetic that no longer excites you. Growth > consistency.
Style is not just visuals—it’s attitude.
How do you feel when you draw?
Playful? Bold? Soft? Chaotic?
Inject that energy into your lines, colours, and compositions.
That’s what makes it yours.
Don’t compare—connect.
Someone else’s polished style doesn’t mean you’re behind.
They’re on page 400 of their sketchbook.
You might be on page 40.
Keep turning pages.
Draw a lot. Post a little.
Art style isn’t found through likes.
It’s found in solitude, sketchbooks, and long nights.
When you stop performing and start exploring, your voice comes through.
You already have a style.
If you draw 50 pieces, look back.
You’ll see patterns.
Shapes. Lines. Colors.
You’ve been building your style this whole time—you just didn’t notice yet.
Your art style isn’t missing.
It’s not something you find.
It’s something you grow into—with time, passion, and practice.
Draw honestly. Stay curious. Keep going.
