I don’t think ‘finding’ is the right word here. I would use ‘recognizing’.
Your style is just consistency to your drawings, whether you’re free-handing or using a reference.
And it’s perfectly okay to have more than one style. I know you like both manga/anime and real-life drawings, and you definitely don’t have to pick one or the other. The fact remains that your real-life drawings look a certain way and so do your manga characters.
I’ve actually noticed that your free-hands look like a bit of both. I love that style, and you do a great job with it.
While categorizing styles helps keep everything organized, there isn’t this-many styles and no drawing steps outside the line, either. Styles can be completely mixed, and sometimes a style is a style because it isn’t consistently a traditional style.
And even when the way you draw something varies, your style is just how it looks in the end, unique to you.
These are just my personal thoughts, really, but I hope it helps.
