Style

Hello all!
First of all, a little update. My computer is getting fixed, (long story short, the hard drive died, but luckily since it's on warranty it's getting fixed) and hopefully it will be back withing two weeks (Yay!). The only thing is I have to load everything again on the laptop (Boo!).
So what have I been doing in the meantime?
Well I've been sketching some new art and seeing which of my art I did previously I want to try and redo now that I have a tablet.
But the main thing I'm trying to do is find my style.
Style: that elusive word that is also so prevalant in art. Every artist I watch on a regular basis has a certain style. some make their art have a lighter tone, others a darker tone. Some like using a certain color, others use lighting and shadowing to dictate the mood of the piece. Some look for more realistic art while others prefer to draw things more toon like. And the list goes on and on.
The question is... what is my style? What is it that makes my art stand out? By standing out, I'm not meaning that I'm trying to be better. I just want someone to look at my art and say "that's Inari 85's art."
Have I found this style yet? I'm not quite sure. I feel like I'm still experimenting with it. Even my established characters like Whimst and Art Vulpine and my fan art keep changing.
So artists and watchers: how did you discover your style?
