Understandable, everyone has different likes and dislikes in all forms of art and collecting. I honestly can't stand almost all junipers unless they're gnarly Yamadori specimens.
To be honest, the more I get into this hobby and look at different styles, the more I'm learning that I prefer non-traditional styles like Fairy Tale and Naturalistic. I'd guess that 80% of what I draw and paint are trees, or landscapes with trees as the focal subject/s, and all the trees I draw/paint are fantasy/fairy tale inspired, or a reference from a photo I took of a really cool tree I came across in the wild. I also grew up in the PNW and Western Montana, and I know it's shaped which species of trees I prefer and my art tends to reflects that.

I just discovered
@BobbyLane's work and I really love his style.
I've learned to enjoy Ficus because in the winter, it's nice to have trees inside that I can look at, as well as nice to have on my office desk.
