I used to make myself crazy with finding my style. Everyone is talking about it and make it sound so important, that you totally forget that you are already unique. The way you choose colors or the way you hold a pen, the way you write or draw. You already have a style. Don’t beat yourself up by reaching all this standards that others define. As an artist and person you should grow and evolve a long the way and that also means that you can change or mix things up as you please.
I was so obsessed by color that it started to frighten me and every color I choose felt wrong. The reason was, that I felt the obligation to work with always the same colors, because everyone else seems to do it. Their art got more recognizable. This might work for some, but I came to realise that I have not become an artist to restrict myself. I want to feel free and express freely in that given moment. I want to feel free of choosing a color or a style. Eventually you will stick to some color or method that feel right to you or not and that’s totally fine.

Discovering who you are as a person and artist may be the biggest challenge of all as you need to accept yourself with all it may take.
(And now I just have to follow my own advice :D)
