@kitkat How nice! Thank you. I'm glad that I can be an inspiration to you. I like a loose style of painting because it makes the painting look effortless and I enjoy looking at that myself. Also, know that a style should come naturally over time. Don't try to force it. Just be yourself. It helps to look at other artists' work that you like. For me, I've always admired the work of John Singer Sargent. Good luck in your work.
