In looking around, one artist in particular that I really admire (Audrey Kawasaki) has a WONDERFUL website and blog. It's one that I especially have found helpful and inspiring...I really like that she posts her raw sketches. She also shows images of her pieces in progress, talks about her trials and hardships, and *amaizingly* sells small batch prints and other interesting artifacts.
