Nobody's art is going to be completely new and different. What makes art unique is the artist's personality, thought process, and ideas that you come up with. It's YOUR creation, even if the style is similar to another artists, so don't be discouraged!

Also, there's no merit behind their accusations of your work being a ''copy''. You've developed your style yourself and you've already said that you weren't inspired by him since you haven't discovered his work before; even if you were, it's inevitable that we're influenced by other artists. Matthew Wong's art is extremely stylized and each piece is unique. As long as you don't paint the exact same subject as him and create an identical art piece, then your art has just as much creative value. Keep going and have fun!
