I know I may be sacrificing a possible personal style by messing around with different themes and jumping from colorful and happy stuff to eerie and grungy monsters (with a lot of miscellaneous stuff in between), but I'm sure having a lot of fun.
I think we talked earlier about how adopting a 'signature style' can be limiting. You see it most among commercial artists but also in fine art. I'm a big fan of cartoonist, Gary Larson, for example, and I see how his style has grown and developed, but if he all of a sudden he switched to abstracts... I doubt his fans would support him. It's more fun and more freeing to try out different styles and genres/ media all the time.
I really love how a lot of pieces of art have some stories to them and were initially meant to be very different from the way they turn out to be!
This means that you are letting things happen and playing with your art, which (in my opinion) is the sign of a real artist.
I love playing with different styles and tools.
