Perhaps, a masters in art history?

Spent time reading older posts and am impressed with the clarity and presentation of the blog, focused on the writing. I look forward to following you now and I'm VERY picky about that, which is more than just picky. If you have time or interest, I am writing about gardens and related topics this month.
