I totally understand how you feel about not being able to find a distinctive style. I, too, am searching. I find myself inspired by YOU and want to learn to do lettering, unfortunately, my handwriting sucks (lefty) so I'll have to work extra hard just to be marginally adequate. <br /><br />If you'd like to stop by, I host The Artist's Play Room, every Saturday there's a new theme and a new linky to add your artwork to throughout the week. I'd love to see you join us, I see a bunch of your commenters are participants already. You'd fit right in and you may even find you have a more distinctive style than you thought as you look through both your and other's work. :o). Find me at www.JustAddWaterSilly.com, hope to see you there!<br />Best,<br />JennJennifer McLeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05684514236592711220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526444759382677777.post-91794733249920140602012-05-21T16:49:24.323-04:002012-05-21T16:49:24.323-04:00Molly, I love this post...your honesty! I can so ...Molly, I love this post...your honesty! I can so relate! I think it's awesome to have lots of different interests and it's really a gift to "be inspired". I also think that we pick up what we need to learn along the way and eventually it all morphs together! I get antsy if I work on something exclusively so I jump around alot too....but I (lately) have been going back to drawing. To sketching. I like this challenge. Maybe you haven't found your challenge yet! Either way....the art, this creativity, these new discoveries benefit us in so many unseen ways!

I had an art collector friend once tell me I was a Sunday Artist...that means not really good just playing in paint and having fun. I was kind of depressed although it is true. I don't have the fine tuned skill or natural ability to be a "fine arts" artist. But I keep doing, searching and creating...who knows maybe someday I'll be recognizible too! ps I have several sold pieces over the years...so I take pride in that.<br />cheers, danaSinderella's Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08967714248023339874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526444759382677777.post-51471035779046887142012-04-29T19:36:00.494-04:002012-04-29T19:36:00.494-04:00Wow, that is exactly how I feel.

I can't settle on one form ...You sound like me. I can't settle on one form of art and have a room full of art materials from many different disciplines. I used to think there was something wrong with me, but have since discovered that I'm what is called a multi-passionate. I like to do many different things and I rotate through them obsessing on them each in turn.<br /><br />My cure is to go with the flow. Don't try to fight it, but use it to its maximum. When you want to do one thing get as much out of it as you can before you inevitably shift to the next interest. It is expensive to keep buying all that equipment, but let's face it, buying art materials is fun :D and as long as you don't strangle the budget, why not? :D<br /><br />I'm still looking for my style. I often coin myself as being an artist in search of her art. I don't think I have a style yet, but I tell you what, I'm having great fun looking for it.<br /><br />Enjoy yourself and remember only you can do your art. There is only one of you on this planet and you are unique. No one else can do what you do.<br /><br />Oh, and that lettering is divine!<br /><br />Best wishes,<br />LizLiz Powleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12947609251756134536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526444759382677777.post-73673727942735203752012-04-28T08:46:44.276-04:002012-04-28T08:46:44.276-04:00Love your post.....I totally relate to it.

I'm always interested in many things. But I think it's good. Curiosity is the first quality for an artist. Experimenting, changing, improving. We don't really must have one only style. Style changes with growth. <br />These lettering classes you're taking are awesome!!

So annoying, as my style is all overall the place, and I would hate to be stuck with only one way of doing things. So I decided I wont, and continue experimenting and enjoying myself instead.<br />Love your journal page, so pretty and wonderful lettering!Anne Mandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222052687691094140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526444759382677777.post-90726391521228520092012-04-28T00:45:05.819-04:002012-04-28T00:45:05.819-04:00Wonderful lettering!

It's a subconscious thing isn't it? because if it wasn't then that would be sort of artificial. Haven't really thought this through but I think the more you expose yourself to different artists, methods, techniques, materials, then you will have the tools and inspiration you need to shine!

And i agree, it's easy and tempting to skip around from one thing to another, i keep doing that too, even though i get stuck on one or two things for quite awhile. Nothing wrong with trying new things, eveually they meld together and sortof slip into one new type that's all yours!

I don't do all my drawing in the moment.. I take photos and use them.. at least until the rain quits and I can get outside to do life things.. so you can do that too. I make notes of what attracted me to something also. I think maybe journaling would be good for you as you can do it all in one place and use the journal as a spring board into a painting or something else that the journal work inspired you to do. Happy hunting for what you like as that's fun also.Cris, Artist in Oregonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15067969984221375853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526444759382677777.post-65729408231008603612012-04-27T12:42:31.071-04:002012-04-27T12:42:31.071-04:00I really love this!
