I am confused :lost:

How come everyone is enthusiastic about seeing Bjorn demo and do workshops with him, but only 2 weeks or so ago, Scott's thread viewtopic.php?f=25&t=20317 asking about Matt Reel visiting got ridiculed for the same?

Both are young up and coming artists,
Both spent considerable time ( 6 and 7 years) as an apprentice in Japan under a recognised Master.
Both are active in their own Bonsai communities and produce awesome work :imo:

The only difference I recognise ( having seen neither in person), is that Bjorn is much more active on the internet. Is he better because he has more internet fame or some other tangible reason?
Has he been here before?

before anyone jumps up and down, this is a legitimate question and I am wanting a serious answer.

Haha.. I didn't say that. In any case I hadn't heard of the other guy, but know of Bjorn through his Bonsai Art of Japan videos on Youtube. Watched all 40 something of those in a week or so recently, very informative.
