Every time you purchase an artbook via a link on my blog I earn a small referral fee, which I can then use to leverage the cost of running this site, as well as buying more books for review. ( it takes many many referrals to earn enough credits to buy just one book, I assure you, which is why I appreciate all the support I can get. )
