Well although I do fave a lot of my fandoms (groups I tell ya make this situation deeper), I usually fave stuff that appear unusual to me. But mostly because they've brought a smile to my face. I'm a sucker for a cheap laugh.

I think I fave things that make me laugh more often than not, but I also go for the "dynamic/cool" stuff and the "awe-inspiring/awesome" stuff.

I have faved one or two things specifically because I thought it would help me draw better, but that's especially rare

Admittedly I fave too much stuff when it falls into "one of my favorite series" category, but it usually ALSO crosses over into cool/awesome.

But I like to think the best faves I have make me laugh, or at least smile :)

It's very impulsive. If it catches my eye, basically, and I notice it to be special, I add it to my faves. I used to fave all the time, but now I don't have that much free time for that. xD

Awe inspiring - scenes of any kind, where colour and lighting has been used in an awe inspiring way to achieve a majestic composition. Something that makes me go "woah, this person has so much skill." I guess it goes hand in hand with "I could learn from this;" I tend to fav stuff that show a skill level I would like to work hard and achieve myself.
I often use favs for inspiration, like if I see a gorgeous landscape I'll have a go at painting one myself afterwards, and hopefully learn a thing or two. I generally don't upload "studies" like that though.

It's different from piece to piece, but mostly it's about feelings.
If the deviations triggers some kind of emotion out if me, it's a bigger chance for me to fave it.
But it's usually a mix of everything in the poll.

I like the soft colors in a painting, like if it had a calming affect like watercolours, i favorite them

It's inspiration for my writing/references for commissions (char was inspired by ______, an outfit like _____, this tat, etc), first and most, but many are also for one of more of any reason you listed.
