An Artist's Style?

"Originality is the art of concealing your source."

"What is originality? Undetected plagiarism."
--D.Inge
Maybe I don't understand the concept of originality.
because I often question its existence :l
and as an artist I find it to be a bit heartbreaking since being considerably original and creative is one of my goals in life. Maybe I'm trying abit too hard not to conform or maybe I'm just lost.
Either way, the ever so elusive idea of an Artist's very own "Style" escapes me :l
Even with the improvement, I feel as if I'm just going to run into a dead end in the near future :l If originality does not exist than what is this artistic style or does it really madder? Than who has to right to criticize someones art. Art is a personal opinion I suppose.
If such a thing exists than my "style" is very bland and unoriginal. I seldom find the placement of the facial features in my artwork is accurate or pleasant to look at and the scribbles I tend to scratch around the non-existent figure defy the laws of gravity as poor excuses of clothing. Even for anime I take note my "style" is very awkward. Also the absence of a background is the victim of my laziness which puts all the work i put into it for naught.
I curse the day I started with anime as a basic form to begin with and feel it hinders my ability to draw people as they actually look and not as i think they do. My ability to venture into new grounds of other cartoon "styles" is crippled for i find the idea that people actually have sometimes rather ugly things called noses is terrifying (exaggerating but-) *sigh*

On another note, my fears have been really bothering me lately particularly flaws in my personality and its development, my confidence in my interests aswell. I fear hypocrisy from myself, I fear selfish behavior from myself, I fear rudeness, arrogance, inconsideracey, racism, hatefulness, ignorance, and finalization.
and my crippling fear of darkness but.
Perhaps I have been thinking too abstract. :l Yeah thats probably it
