How do I find an art style?
Basically the same question as 'how do I have a distinct taste?' or "how do I know what, exactly, I want?"
Consider it in analogy to becoming a sophisticated person: travelling the world is associated with becoming more sophisticated. It allows you to put your existing preconceptions into better context, meaning your actual positions on things become more nuanced.
So, gradually broaden your methods of making art, and expand your visual library into subjects you are unfamiliar with. That all helps to build a better-informed taste.
The remainder is, drilling the fuck out of the fundamentals (draftsmanship: lines, curves, ellipses, perspective, design) -- 1000s of hours in total, 30 minutes or so at a time. That's the difference between 'having an art style' and 'having a CONSISTENT art style' (which is what makes art really recognizable), in my observation.
