I have been a self proclaimed artist for a while now and Im having a hard time sticking to one style. Im pretty good at drawing realism/portraits but I really want to delve into abstract art. Not only that, there are so many forms of abstract art that I am interested in and I cant decide what I like creating the most. I feel like I cant develop my own unique style if I cant even find a place to start, or where to draw inspiration from. My goal is to build a brand for myself and grow a following, and to me its important to have a consistent style that people will associate me with. Additionally, I find myself worrying about what art style will appeal to the largest audience which may be part of why Im struggling to decide.

Its so difficult to find one when I enjoy all of them!!!

I would recommend asking this over on /r/learnart or /r/artistlounge. This subreddit is reserved for those working through the lessons on drawabox.com, as explained here.

That said, in one of our course's early videos, where we discuss what the fundamentals are, the latter half is spent discussing exactly what style is and how it can be explored and developed, so that might be of interest to you. You'll find that video here.
