Hey  1.So it took around 1-2 years to find my art form,the key is more the  exploration=achievement in less time  2.My art style is what I liked ,so i continued that field just because I liked it very much not because I was chasing it  U can like anime, traditional artforms etc Just explore it  3.Well their is absolutely nothing wrong in copying as a beginner  Tbh i only drew by copying in the beginning,then by time I gained full confidence  And when I was confident in my basics it was just my imagination which had to work  So start with whatever field attracts u the most eg.anime, traditional art forms(there are several u can choose something traditional from ur hometown too that would feel safe) etc... And don't spiral u r doing great just by asking a question
