Via The Art Biz Blog, I discovered this post on Seven Steps to Finding Your Style. The article was posted a while back but I still believe it is relevant to artists.
Here are a couple of points that caught my interest:
- Experiment. - "You don’t have to make art to sell. You can make art to grow as an artist. Try a new medium, practice a new style, copy a favorite historical work, enlarge or decrease the size, or use a color outside of your normal palette range. You are making art just for you. No one else has to see it."
- Draw. Doodle. Write. "Wherever you go, whatever you are doing, get into the habit. Sketch a scene, write down your responses to other artists. The goal is to keep your pencil on the paper and to capture your brilliance before it disappears."
