What makes me personally awooga at art is when someone loves what they do and it shows.
I'm going to use JKDot5. Fantastic artist, does lots of print-worthy pieces that I've even encountered at friend's houses. They're usually drawing the trendy thing, girls you can recognize easily if you're at all in his intended strike range (anime fans with disposable income), but unlike a lot of other artists in the FOTM rat race, he's achieved a measure of success.
Personally, I believe it's because of his love for girls with crazy gazes. Every girl in pic related captures your attention like THAT, because they're giving you a crazy look. He clearly loves drawing it, because it's in every picture, and more importantly, it's done WELL.
Find what you love, hone it, use it as a weapon. Hope this helps.
