I don't wanna have just one style, I like too many styles for that. I have decided to be an art style shapeshifter so I can draw in as many ways as I want! >:3

Art style shapeshifter? Holy.. that’s so darn creative! Anyways It’s cool but, you might get the short end of the stick and get accused of stealing someone else’s art because it’s too different even though it was drawn by the same hands.

Trust me, she's right. Once I stopped worrying about finding my art style, and just focused on having fun and learning, it just happened. Now, you can kinda tell what I would watch while learning to draw, and how it influenced my art, as well as what I like to draw, and how I use them to make my characters expressive, and it's still evolving as I draw, so slow down, have fun, and maybe draw along with an art channel or someone doing an art study or just figuring out how to draw something silly, and the art style will find you as you figure out what you like to draw and how you give a character expressions, it will keep growing and evolving as you draw and watch shows, read comics, etc. so just have fun and listen to her advice.

Im glad you brought up experimenting with your style. Its integral to developing your own style and I wish more artists understood that changing up things doesnt mean it immediately becomes unrecognizable. Experimenting is fun and important to find out what works and doesnt and shouldnt cause such intense fear :")

What's interesting is I've seen the artist Mark Crilly change up their style a lot they done many graphic novels and art book that are in a lot of different styles. He's even talked about the pros and cons of sticking or not sticking to one style. what i like about this is it shows that even professional artists have the want/need to change up their style every now and then

When I was learning “my style”, I saw countless vids saying it’s better ti be a “style chameleon” than having your own unique style because one will get you a job, and the other will keep you with consistent work. Being where I am now, I wish I knew more styles 😅😅😅 Studying newer styles now, it’s just a long process

@mysryuza 5 күн бұрын

I’m usually peeved when people say “finding your artstyle.” Imo, you don’t “find” it. You grow it and it grows with you the more you improve your skills and learn more tricks and tips. It gets tiring when the “how to find your artstyle” videos usually regurgitate the same stuff. We all have our own style, we need to explore what style works with us and feels like something we would draw a lot. We all screw up all the time. I would look at Sakura from Street Fighter for example; She tried to implement a fighting move done by someone she looked up to, but even though she screwed it up, she used that to her advantage. Thus, it became part of her own fighting style despite being reminiscent to what came before. I used the Beyblade Metal Saga as my inspirations for my art style, and though I screw up imitating the artstyle a LOT, it became its own thing and some people instantly could recognize my style if they saw my art a lot before.

I don't care about art style I just want to achieve art that I'm somewhat happy and had fun drawing it and creating. I'm slowly getting there though! I just came out of an art block that lasted a few weeks but I kept pushing and now I feel I've grown quite a lot and I'm more happy (not satisfied) but happy with what I come up with. I do believe that your way of drawing (even if you aren't trying to achieve a style per se) can be easily recognised by someone else that follows your art and saw it somewhere. There's always something that shows in each piece you created either the way you do lineart or color, people can recognize that it's yours.

Finding a style is so hard.hopefully this video will help!

@TarotDomina 4 күн бұрын

"Finding" your art style is way overrated and often adds unnecessary overwhelm to artist who think it's a do or die situation. Your an artist! If you wanted to box yourself in go work in a cubicle, point is, don't limit yourself or your style and don't care about "finding it". Let everything teach you and never stop implementing, experimenting and learning. "Finding" an art style is I think, something professionals should be most concerned with. Otherwise it's all gravy baby and chill out, explore and relax. Because the sheer number video of "finding" your art style videos show me there's too much concern over labels and boxes and definitions. When you find it. You'll know, until then and even after then, keep exploring and expanding! ❤

This video was very helpful as someone who used to focus so much on finding my art style. It's something I still think about, but I've decided to let it develop naturally and I've been happier for it. The last section about multiple art styles made me had a face palm moment lol, I've been wanting a mix of a cartoony style and anime-inspired style when I can simply have those be separate styles and use them interchangeably depending on the piece I want to make. I feel very motivated now!

I have a very semi-realistic artstyle but I slowly want to gravitate towards more simplistic more anime-ish style but it's so hard not to overrender then making it more realistic. I shouldn't rush anyway, I have been doing digital art for over four years now actually but it's hard sometimes when seeing other artists have a consistent style

@thatstockin 3 күн бұрын

If you want your art style to shift from being semi realistic to a simpler anime art style, you should keep in mind that it’s not an art style degradation. I say this because sometimes people think that having realistic art is more favourable than having a typical anime art style, think of it like a root that extends to more different smaller roots. each represent a checkpoint of where your art is at. You can combine the both of the checkpoints to create something unique! I suggest you experiment with different ideas, and then once you have enough drawings to compare. add them to a collage and grade them based on how much you want to replicate.

@hypetrail 3 күн бұрын

@@thatstockin agreed and thank you for your time for answering. Also, I never specifically said it’s an art style degredation. Simplicity doesn’t necessarily equate to easier or a downgrade in art. I have been doing detailed pieces that takes between 80 (at highest) and 30 hours (as lowest) for a while now, my art pieces end up looking detailed but missing something. It may be the composition or lighting, or my values or lack of shape fundementals. I think havig a somewhat less detailed artstyle may help me improve whilst slso practicing fundementals, as it wouldn’t take that much time compared to my detailed pieces. I have trouble sorting my time management (💀) and I tend to avoid replicating other people artstyle and often just use real life references, so studying from artists with different styles I like will undoubtedly help. Thank you!

I've always looked at my art style as a thing that is already there but levels up as I decide to experiment with it or learn fundamentals. Though, I had experienced firsthand what could happen when one does change a subjective aspect of their art-style.

@kaminaminami Күн бұрын

my main issue is that the style i like to draw in most is not the style i personally feel like looks best... i love making art with brushes that look like pencils, painting over it rather than having several layers for different colors and shading, i love making more messy and painterly stuff. But whenever i see art that is clean, polished, with smooth lineart and a very "clean" style of shading (soft cel shading i guess ? with some blended and airbrushed elements mixed in for a polished smooth look) i get hung up on the fact that i want my art to look like that. I don't like the process of making art in that style at all though. It takes me 30x longer and i end up spending 35+ hours on an illustration that would have taken me 5 if i did it my way. But my art looks better to me if i use the style i love seeing and in the end i feel like my art is "ugly" if i do it in a way that is fun. I hate paying attention to every pixel on my canvas but i also hate the feeling of knowing i could make art that i believe looks way better and shows off my technical ability but choosing to not do that for the sake of fun... It's so hard to make art in my own unique style even though i know loads of people who prefer the way i draw over the style i prefer looking at myself. It's like a more subtle version of being a stylized artist and going into a fine arts museum, looking at the realistic and ethereal art of renaissance painters and feeling the urge to abandon the creative liberties stylistic art gives you for the sake of making something equally as impressive. I put in so much work to have the kind of style i find most appealing and it breaks my spirit to repeatedly realize that it is not an enjoyable experience to make it... Yet it can't help myself from doing it anyway because i'm not satisfied with the art that i find to be fun to make.

I found my style, in a pretty simple way - I watched two of Lavendertowne's videos (one about hands, and...Another, can't remember) - Figured that my hands are my weakest part, and decided to draw hands as squares. Since that would be easier for me - I searched for an Artstyle, that had hands similar to what I wanted (aphantasia, no mind's eye), and landed on the Panty & Stocking artstyle However, even though I do reference that Artstyle when I draw, mine, doesn't even really look like it. Since, I'm using it as more of an outline, and not something I have to follow exactly And, I have my own preferences. I like drawing feet, similar to how Sonic characters' feet sometimes look I'm trying to give my characters different eyes. Probably because I like how Little Witch Academia's characters, almost all have different eyes ... And, oh yeah. I'm a furry artist. So, I add anthro characteristics to my drawings

I get that so many pro artists push the idea of finding a singular style for the sake of being recognizable/marketable, which is important for them, but GOD does it feel restrictive. I'll be real here, most professional artists I've seen give off vibe that they don't actually enjoy what they do. So many people want to pursue being a pro artist because "if you love what you do for a living, then you never work a day in your life", but most pro artists I've seen feel to me like they've fallen out of love with it entirely and are only doing it because they're good at it. That's why I'm sticking to being a hobbyist. I use art to get AWAY from my soul-sucking anxiety-inducing job, not for it to become the new one.
