Here is one of those artists. Her name is Juliette Aritstides and she runs her own atelier in Seattle. I had the pleasure of meeting her last year, and i will say that she is a truly gifted and intelligent woman. She's written two books that are a must for traditional 2D artists - Classical Drawing Atelier and Classical Painting Atelier. Very much worth reading.
