Have you ever heard of an artist called Ivan Bilibin? Or something that that, not sure I spelled the name right. I only heard of him from some Art Nouveau blogs on here (don't seem to be currently active) that reblogged stuff from each other, and not only was his stuff incredibly pretty, it's also VERY much what I desire for my own artwork. Unless I'm confusing you for another person (which is very possible) I think you studied art, and I'm curious as to how well-known he is, among people who have actually learned stuff.
He was a new name. I checked his art and yes! He's got the classic Russian/ East European fairy tale art style from his own time.
Sometimes I can find old translated story books from Russia from second hand stores with similar art. It's always a pleasure!
Finnish children book illustrator Rudolph Koivu lived around the same time with Ivan Bilibin. You might enjoy his art, too, albeit it's softer.

I would also recommend Danish artist Kay Nielsen.
