i think what makes developing my art style especially wonderful is looking at my older art and seeing the bits and pieces being there, but unrefined and lacking in confidence. like that's obviously me, that's my art, i'm just not sure what i'm doing yet. i love it so so so much and seeing pieces of my current style in my older art makes me feel all the more confident in the direction i'm going in.
#sparkletwinkles#for the longest time i didn't believe i could have a 'style' but now that i'm actually figuring one out it's so nice#bc having a style doesn't mean having rules necessarily it just means learning what you like#and it's also so important to understand that liking someone's art doesn't mean you should even want to draw just like them#but that doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't use what you like about their art to inform your own style#bc my style is most definitely just an amalgamate of different inspirations that have informed the way i'm wired to see things#whether consciously or not#and experimenting in other people's styles can really help you figure out what it is you're connecting with#like my art wouldn't be what it is without the years i spent learning to emulate the woy art style etc#but that isn't MY art style#it's just a factor of it the same way my other inspirations are#my three biggest artistic inspirations are the woy style + the monster high style + junko mizuno#and idk how visible those each are but they have all informed me in a very unique way#i also just love the mccracken/tartakovsky/etc western cartoon style of big shapes and confident thick lines
