Discovering your Authentic Style
What’s your Authentic Style?
- It’s what differentiates you from other fashion illustrators
- It’s what connects you to your work
- How people recognize your work as yours
- A way how you express yourself as an artist
So, you shouldn’t:
- Mix and match other people’s styles
- Get inspired by other people’s work
- Follow trends
… because your authentic style comes from within. It comes from your heart, it’s all about who you are, how you see life, how you interpret fashion, and how you express yourself through your work.
Your style is already within you.
How do you find your authentic style?
The 6 steps to discovering your authentic style:
- Dig into your personality
- Create your own visual vocabulary
- Experiment with emotions
- Find your own drawing style
- Try different perspectives on color, texture, and composition
- Put it all together
Remember, your authentic style is already within you. You make it authentic, you make it YOURS. So, pour yourself into your work, explore, experiment, and discover it.
This step won’t be completed until you feel confident about your style.
