The Detox method
This is where the detox method comes into play. The detox method is an approach to finding your art style that focuses on reducing the amount of consumption of art and increasing the amount of output.
So, we want to make as much Art as possible while not looking at the artwork of others. 4 weeks where you don’t look at any art by other artists and just focus on making more art yourself.
Why does this work?
If we create a ton of artwork, we will start to get a better sense of what we enjoy making. Then with the reduction of consuming art we will start to let go of our expectations of what our art should look like or what is popular.
You will find that in the beginning of this process your art will be a bit rigid but as you loosen your expectations you will start to draw more interesting concepts, Finding Your Style
