Art style theft

The claim that an art style can be stolen or copied by learning artists to gain attention. Usually claimed by unpopular artists/commentary channels to gain attraction.
Person 1: "That girl stole Sleepkinq's art style! Art style theft!!"
Person 2: "You can't STEAL an art style dude. Beginning artists often take inspiration from things they like and use it as grounds to learn how to draw. Even if they based it off that artist's art style they're creating original pieces with it. Everyone draws different anyway, it's impossible to 100% copy an art style. We're all going to do certain parts differently than other artists. Of course, artists need to branch off and experiment from one art style but it's not like some CRIMINAL thing that you need to be #ISOVERPARTY about."

Art Of Noise

Art Of Noise were a brilliant group of musicians who made music from sampled sounds stored on their Fairlight sampler. Couple that with some synthesizers and a simmons electronic drum kit and the genius of J.J Jezalik and Anne Dudley, then you have the best sound your ears will ever experience.
