One of many great finds on Twitter over the last three years was Athenaeum Comic Art, which is basically a one person operation getting original art from an amazing array of alternative cartoonists into the hands of their followers.
As an introduction here's a lengthy discussion between founder Sean Watkins and patron Loading the Canon:

The Athenaeum Comic YouTube channel is invaluable for the videos of Sean going through individual artist's shipments of original art:
Remy Boydell
Shawn Daley
A.C. Esguerra
Nate Garcia
Jonathan Hill
Josh Pettinger
Rosemary Valero-O'Connell
Noah Van Sciver
Sophie Yanow
All these artists are high quality but I was really blown away by the vibrant colors on the Remy Boydell, Shawn Daley, and A.C. Esguerra pages. (Shawn Daley's pages are on sale this month!)
Here's the unbelievable line-up of artists you can get original art from through Athenaeum Comic Art:
