hi i need art advice
how does one make a style that people will actually like
From a design standpoint, try to experiment with what
you like, work on style consistency and then venture out into the world of art and figure out what other people like. Can be as easy as exploring tags on Tumblr. Experiment with other people's styles until you find something you're comfortable working with, and then slowly try to adopt your own style into something that you're acceptable presenting to other people.
It's all about having a perspective on what is well received. When it comes to things like art, there's a pretty clear science behind what makes people like a piece of art. Take into account the colors that are used on average, and how those colors are blended. Take into account how proportion is used in the average of the popular art you view. Slowly, you'll figure out the formula to making a style that people like.
Once you get to a point that you're comfortable sharing art, find yourself a group of people who will be honest about your artwork. You need that criticism if you're going to figure out the general reception to your artwork. This doesn't necessarily mean you have to open yourself up to unconstructive attacks, but rather that if you're looking to make something people are going to enjoy, you gotta listen to the people you're presenting it to.
