I think the best thing you can do as an artist especially if youre struggling with a lot of art block is to let go of style. Whenever i see anons ask popular artists how to gain a style im like omg dont! dont get one. Its suffocating tbh! I used to have one art style i used and i only drew in that one and it was awful, i couldnt draw anything i really wanted because i was so scared to let go of this carefully cultivated style i had and it was ruining my work! 

I’m so glad for the day i was like you know what, fuck this its not working! I started playing with my art more and now i have 2-3 styles i cycle between and i feel sooooo much better about my art. That’s my advice to you i guess as a fellow artist, let go of “style” and have fun again! make stuff you want to make even if it looks bad or not how youd visioned it, just mess around!!!
