I don't have a style -- faux-pas?

[Weisser Ritter]

I really don't. I can practise all I like (and I have been since I can remember), but with every drawing my "style" changes quite a bit -- so much so that I'm convinced I haven't got a style at all.

Have you got a style? How did you end up with it and know that yes, this is your style, and are you happy with it?

...I don't have a style. I draw whatever is required.

[NuMedia Millie]

if I had a style I would call it faux-pas. That is just too good a name.

This may not help you but it helped me to find a style that i was comfortable in and liked as my own.

Honestly I have about 3 styles that vary for different purposes, but I tend to stick to those three.

Everybody has a style, unless you blatantly copy another style every single time you draw something.
I have a style. I ended up having it through being influenced by all sorts of things such as western cartoons, some anime, and countless other artists. I'm quite happy with it, even though I still need to approve on basic anatomy.

Are your style changes intentional or unintentional? This is important.

[Ms Spook]

Style is something that comes naturally when you don't try to intentionally copy others.

When you get comfortable enough with drawing to just draw....it comes through.

Life drawing, lots and lots of life drawing... Really, I can't tell if I have a style, but other people tell me that when they see my stuff online, they can tell it's mine without me having my signature on it/knowing it's mine in the first place. I think that's when you know you have your own style, when other people can tell your work apart from others.

I neither copy nor often even reference. My changes are at times intentional (like when I don't like how I draw eyes or shoulders, I'll experiment). But it seems that unless I reference my own work, I produce something that looks different or, as I continue to draw, the style shifts unintentionally over time (and I don't always like the direction). Perhaps I have a style somewhere but I can't see it yet. Also this is about when I draw in an anime style, as I do have a signature style with life drawings and realism.

Style can take a while to develop. Once you get shapes and anatomy down perfectly your own style will really be able to develop. Granted it's not going to be consistent for a while, but typically it's something that just... happens. You'll start seeing things you like better than other and incorporate them more and more in your work. That's all there really is to it.

As my teacher says, you will not figure out your style for a very long time. It takes years and years if development before you can actually call something your style. Just keep practicing and continue with your artistic studies and eventually you will find something you like and adjust it to how you would like and then you can call it a style.

My male and female styles differ alot, so it stops me from being able to mix opposite genders in the same picture haha. But I have a pretty set style its just taken me a long time to work it out.

Don't worry about style, just learn how to draw. My identical twin and I have the same training and have been drawing the same amount of time and our art never looks the same. You'll live.

[Cupcakechan]

I feel like I don't have my own style, either. I purposely adopt the styles of others because it is fun and I get bored of just one. X'D
Oddly enough, people who know me and my art are able to pick out mine from others. So, even though I have many styles that I bounce around with, I still have my own flavor.

Still, I wish one day I can settle down and marry to one style♥
Good luck finding your own ^u^

[Castielsky]

Of course you can't see your own style.
Other people see it for you :]
