Hi,
I just discovered your journal...and looking back, I'm really enjoying it!  I signed on for the alerts.  This artist is quite good.  Reminds me of the feel I get with some of the works of Maxfield Parrish.   I'm not very "art-educated" AT ALL...but I'm willing to learn!   (love the paper artist too!)
Nice to meet you...
