This is going to sound like a weird question, but did you create this piece?
I found it off google images, loved it so much I made it the profile picture of my current D&D character, then backtracked to see who it was done by. I found someone claiming they commissioned it from you and was like; hey, I follow her on DA already! Though, I can't find it in your gallery, so I'd thought I'd ask instead of assuming I found the right artist.

I notice you’re from Sweden. I visited there years ago. A lot of history!
I've found that a lot of people here in the U.S. don't know much about their own country,
much less anyone else's.
I post prayer updates about different countries. Part of the reason is to raise awareness about what's going on in the rest of the world. If I notice someone on DA is from another country, if I've done their country I let them know. Its my way of letting them know that others are thinking about their home.
This update is about your home!

I'm not sure if I've ever said anything before, but I just want to say I absolutely LOVE your artworks! You're a real inspiration! Your technique and your subjects are so wonderful! Your art has such a beautiful blend of fantasy, vibrant, beautiful and practical. It's so rare to find these days...
I hope to commission you someday, but for now I'll just quietly support you on patreon for the time being

Is it okay if I can borrow your manticore? I'm trying to sketch out Arkhan's Manticore and yours is how I imagined him. But I'll add your name. Also don't let this freak you out but if I ever come across as hateful or envious of you, I am so very, very sorry. I'm not asking for you to follow me on twitter I just want to be friends with the people I admire even if my style is just pencil. I wanted to get that off my chest because way too much negativity to contain. Hope you're okay.

Hey
I just wanted to say that your paintings are really awesome. I especially like the way compose whole scenes. I was wondering if you could tell me how you got so good? Things like where you've studied or how you've studied? Or other general thing on how you do your art.
I'm asking because I'm trying to get better at art. One advice given to the beginner artists is to ask advice from people whose work they admire. And that's why I came to ask you.

Hi, sorry for the delayed response!
Thank you so much, it makes me so happy to hear you like my art.
You have very lovely colours in your art, and I can see some really steady improvement when browsing your gallery. If I were to give you any pointers, it'd be to try and pay attention to how you describe forms in your paintings (as in, shading, highlights, etc). Your two recent portraits are a lot clearer with how the light falls than some of your full figure paintings from August-November. So I think you're already on the right track with that.
Hope you find something of it helpful! I get a little rambly at times.

Thank you for the lengthy response!
I'll make sure to check out Schoolism and Oatley Academy. I honestly didn't think you'd look at my gallery but thank you for browsing trough it. I've been trying to pay more attention to my form painting since it's something I had very little previous experience on. I've planned on doing master studies and I'll check out the painters you mentioned. I'll try to keep on improving my art and painting skill in general.
And thank you once more for taking you time to answer my questions.
