    FRAMEBURST ACADEMY 15

    🎮 Summary (TL;DR)

     

    “Where do I find my art style?”

    Almost every beginner poses this question.

    But here’s the twist:

    You don’t find it like a lost teasure…
    You slowly develop it.

    Let’s make that clear.

    🎬 Why Beginners Feel Confused About Art Style?

    When observing other animators, you notice one thing:

    Their drawings look unique.

    You believe:

    “I want a look like that.”

    So you start researching.

    Yet nothing seems like yours.

    And that gets you frustrated.

    🧠 What Is “Art Style”?

    (In Simple Words)

    Art style is merely:

    The way you draw things repeatedly.

    That’s all.

    It’s your routines.

    • How you draw faces
    • How you shape bodies
    • How simple or detailed you keep things

    It is not something special you obtain.

    It is something you repeat.

    ❌ The Biggest Myth:

    Many starters assume:

    “I need to find my art style first… then I will start drawing.”

    That’s backwards.

    You do not discover your style first.

    You find it after drawing a lot.

     

    🌱 How Style Actually Develops?

    Your style grows graually.

    Like this:

    ✏️ 1. You Draw More:

    At the beginning, everything feels random.

    That’s normal.

    You are just gaining knowledge.

    🔄 2. You Repeat Certain Choices:

    Without noticing, you start engaging in activities again:

    • You simplify the shapes
    • You prefer certain looks
    • You draw eyes a certain way

    These small choices repeat.

    That’s your style forming.

    🎨 3. You Try Different Ideas:

    You might:

    • Try different shapes
    • Experiment with looks
    • Change how you draw hair

    Some things feel right.

    Some do not.

    That is part of the procedure.

    🧩 4. It Begins Feeling “Yours”:

    After some time, you obeserve:

    “This looks like something I made.”

    That is your own style.

    Not perfect. Not conclusive.

    But absolutely yours.

    đź“‹ Is It Okay to Copy?

    Affirmative.

    At the unitial stage, replicating is normal.

    You see something appeals to you…

    You try to sketch it out.

    That’s how you learn.

    But keep in mind:

    1. Do not stay stuck imitating endlessly
    2. Try to understand what you like
    3. Slowly change things your way
    4. And try making out of memory

    Copy -> Understand -> Alter.

    That is how growth happens.

    🎯 There Is No “Perfect” Style:

    This is extremely important.

    No style is the best.

    No correct way.

    No “correct look.”

    Some styles are:

    • Simple
    • Funny
    • Realistic
    • Detailed
    • Adorable

    All of them are legit.

    Your job is not to achieve perfection.

    Your role is to be consistent with yourself.

    🌟 A Final Thought:

    You already have the start of your own style.

    Still at this moment.

    Every time you sketch…

    You make small decisions.

    Those choices matter.

    And as time goes by…

    They become your identity.

    So do not stress about discovering it.

    Simply keep drawing.

    It will locate you instead.
