links
This page of links used to include all kinds of links to artists, but it proved too impossible to keep up as the web is constantly changing and URLs come and go rapidly. Consequently, a lot got eliminated, but now it only includes artists’ home pages and blogs I regularly visit. You can also search the site Tags for artist information.
