An interesting question! I think my first art inspiration was purpleninfy when I was first starting to do art! Drawing pokemon was how I got interested in drawing in the first place so that probably check out.
Since then Ive been exposed to a lot of other kinds of art, so pinning it to just one thing is difficult, so I'll try to break it up a bit:
Flipy[18+] has a toonier style that probably more in line with my personal style, lots of floof! The way they render shiny/gooy things makes my brain go brr (reflections are not my strong suit). I think the way they do shading has a simplicity to it that I really like.
I like Mothsprout's style a lot, the textures he uses throughout his work is very nice which is something im trying to get better at. Everything they draw has very distinct silhouettes to it and that variety/dynamicity is inspiring as hell! I have way too much merch from them lol
Maybe a cold take but Brae's [18+] art is pretty inspiring (i say cold take because i feel like everyone likes their art). They draw some pretty hot scenarios but but i like the way their linework looks. The characters they draw are very expressive which is something Im trying to do more of!
Obviously there are more artists I am inspired by and shape the way I learn art and develop my style, but I feel like those are the three heavy hitters. Sorry if that was a longer answer than you where hoping haha! xD
