Have you taken a lot of "paint-like-me" classes? I’ve coined this term to describe classes created by artist teachers who demonstrate how to make art in their style.

This can be a fabulous introduction to the world of art. As a newbie this is an amazing way to learn new techniques, master any medium you wish to explore (such as acrylic or watercolor painting), and begin to develop confidence in your ability as an artist.

As a seasoned artist, this can be a means of exploring new ideas, taking new approaches to your work, and even having some fun and taking a break from your more committed work.

But how do you know if your work looks too much like your teacher’s art? And how do you start making it look more like YOUR unique art? Let’s dig in!
Hey there! 👋 I'm Carrie. Here on Artist Strong I help self-taught artists who have a home studio, feeling stuck with their art, move from wondering what’s next to confidently expressing themselves through unique, original art. To date, thousands have joined the community.

Today let’s talk about how to consciously use the skills, techniques and ideas that influence your work while creating work that stands out on its own.
