‘Lieblings‑’ is a prefix, not a separate word; you must say ‘meine Lieblingskunst’ (feminine) or use ‘mein Lieblings‑Kunststil’.
Die traditionelle Kunst ist mein Favorit.
The article is optional; adding ‘die’ changes the nuance to a more specific reference, but it’s not wrong—just be aware of the subtle shift.

‘Kunst’ is feminine, so the adjective must be ‘traditionelle’, not ‘traditionelles’.

Cultural Tip
In German‑speaking countries ‘Kunst’ usually refers to fine arts. ‘Traditionelle Kunst’ evokes the classic canon – Renaissance painting, Baroque sculpture, etc. ‘Favorit’ is informal; in a formal presentation you might say ‘Lieblingskunst’ or ‘bevorzugte Kunstform’. Regional dialects may drop the article, but adding ‘die’ (Die traditionelle Kunst…) is also perfectly correct and slightly more formal.
