Kim St. Jean Kim gives wonderful fun classes. Her web site is filled with all kinds of great ideas. She also teaches at William Holland Lapidary School.
Susan Lenart Kazmer Susan not only is a really great artist but she sells supplies, her book, and her new DVD. The book is one of the best ones I have seen for cold connections, simple soldering, wirewrapping and making wonderful talismans. She is such an inspiration to me!
Corina Tettinger I learned to do lampwork with her book "PASSING THE FLAME". Her web site is wonderful and her emails are informative and fun.
Andrea Guarino Beautiful beads.
Sarah Hornik Look at Sarah's work.

Tutorials

Art Jewelry Magazine Not only does this magazine have a lot of inspiration, it also has free projects and videos on line.
Lapidary Journal Art Magazine A great magazine for the amateur to the experienced and even for the the professional. Things that seem too far advanced, slowly begin to look possible as you gain experience and confidence. I love this magazine.
Whole Lotta Whimsy
