5 STEPS TO IMPROVE YOUR ART! | How to Develop Your Art Style | Beginner Art Tips

My art style developed slowly and naturally over the course of 10 years to what it is today. Looking back, I can sort of piece together what I did without thinking at the time into steps you can follow and hopefully speed up that process.

As always: I am not an expert nor do I claim to be. You guys asked for my opinion on this subject and I'm sharing. If this video says anything, I hope it tells you that you should not look to one artists or person for all the answers. Look around you: explore! And take what you see and apply it to your life in a way only you can. Have fun!

"Stealing from one person is called plagiarism, stealing from many is called research."

"just draw a picture, without any references, and that is your art style"
people who draw realistic: *sweats*

[ceecue]

As a complete beginner, this was like an entire art course. I feel like I should've paid for this.

“Look at real life.”
Me who draws only dragons: *sweats*

[flavfunk]

Me: Everything

Rin: Don't say everything

Me: *surprised pikachu image*

Remember that this is a shortened step by step as she stated it took her 10 years to develop a style. Take your time people. Learn more and love the art you're doing. Have a good day :)

“Just draw something”
Me: *Sweats profusely in perfectionism as the head (which is just a circle) is uneven and slightly tilted to the right, making me unhappy and feeling unable to continue.*
“This is your art style”
*Great*
“Now find what you don’t like about it”
Me: Ever-
“And don’t say everything”
Me: *Well the paper itself is ok.*

“Im not telling you to copy-

Its actually really recommended to not stress over at having an art style specially if youre just starting out, just focus on fundamentals 😊

So many artists say "don't worry about art style" but like... it's a really important topic. You were able to tackle such a difficult subject really well. Thanks!

I’m grateful for everything you said at step 3. As a kid I loved drawing and doodling and just the feeling of putting pen to paper, but I always struggled with drawing and never had ‘the gift’ of drawing from memory or from my imagination and told myself I just don’t have what it takes and gave up. I learned about 3 years ago that I have a condition called Afantasia. I literally don’t have a ‘mind’s eye’. And I always believed that if you use a reference you’re not an artist you’re just a copycat so don’t even bother. I’ve been very hard on myself over it. But discovering why my brain needs a reference to work from and now teaching myself that there’s no shame in that has helped a lot. I’m still drawing at a child’s skill level but now at least I’m willing to try. 🥰🥰🥰

her:draw something
me:*scribbles something on paper*
her: dats your art style
me: *cries*

[camilawithac]

why is no one talking about how this was actually helpful ._.

[MeiMeiandPorgi]

This is like one of my favorite videos. Since I can't see anything when I close my eyes, this really helped me a lot. I used to describe my art style is not naked stick figures. Doing this exercise I think my first picture is actually the cutest, by step three they're looking a bit more realistic, and step four looks wow! But when I get to the redraw and I'm feeling pretty proud of myself, the drawing of me looks like old Cathy cartoons. Then I tried to draw my corgi and made the ugliest loaf of bread I ever seen. I should practice corgis another day after my brain recharges. Thank you❣️

Can I just say that this is an actual helpful guide that doesn't just talk condescendingly about how you can't develop a style over night, or duh, everyone can draw, you just gotta try, etc. Like, these are actually applicable steps that someone can take to learn how to develop their style.
