      I have continually struggled also. My current approach is looking through my work, what ways in which I create I like and find artists/illustrators that do like wise or take it a step further. I'll give two similar examples below (these are not my work disclaimer):

      example for svs 01.jpg

      example for svs 02.jpg

      I tend to be drawn to and like making flat shapes sometimes more with gradients with pencil overtop. I love so many other styles but I need to focus on that which I am good at naturally. There are other qualities I like that I will in time merge and create something truly my own.

      I hope this helps! ❤

        I recommend the How to Discover Your Style SVS class. It's a good start to figuring out where you want to go with your art. There is a dream portfolio assignment that is perfect for this question.
