Links
Below you will find links to pages of other artists and writers who I consider the ocelot's overalls and I think you will too. Over the course of my journey as an artist, I've had the privilege to engage with their art, collaborate with several of them, get to know some of them on a personal level, and even benefited immensely from their guidance and teachings.
