Dear Vincent.Thanks for your comments.I always appreciate.Yes,you have touched onto a very essential subject.I will still also answer my fuller view of any artist having his or her own style.This is a very safe place to dwell when you have your own style.Zero copyright infringements.Anyway,I am an artist and by way of general rules poor and battling with an old Apple that is even slower than myself,so....my answer will come.We all dream to be successful and wealthy but that only comes when you're dead.So,I am trying to change the rules and become wealthy before I have to depart to the happy hunting grounds....but it also means burning yhe midnight oil as I put a lot of planning and long hours of hard work into my art pieces.Meanwhile,stay well.Regards.

Original Post: Does every artist have their own “Style”?

Funny that most every well known artist has a recognizable style which is so strong that other artists imitate them. Certain quirks and actions in an artist’s work might be recognizable as their own style. Galleries tend to promote artists who’s work appear similar or repetitive maybe due to style the gallery can promote for collectors. I am guessing that if you do not produce a natural recognizable style then you can consciously create one you can call your own. In my case I do not know that I have a certain style because I work both subjectively and in abstract. This turns galleries off but I don’t care if it does because many galleries turn me off.

What style do you have if any and how important it that to you?
