I love Behance and Pintrest because it's very organized to store pictures and easy to search for good refs...
I have my collections here:

I'm really inspired by Lorena Alvarez, Joey Chou, and Britney Lee! Their styles are so colorful, and imaginative. They are so well trained that the liberties they take capture my attention and inspire me to be less rigid.
I forgot a view very important ones, it's actually one of my old ants. Rie Kramer , she died 1977
and is famous for her classical graphic illustrations.

I love some that you have said: Pascal Campion, Loish, Wouter Tulp
Also I love browsing theses artists' work (all very different styles!): Carter Goodrich is just brilliant, Carine Hinder, Eve Ventrue, Sam Toft. In a very different style, I love Birgitta Sif's style, it's so sweet. and the one who lead me to SVS, Will Terry is a big inspiration as I feel close to his style in the way I draw and paint
oh yeah, another one, even though to fully appreciate it, you need to speak French (she's hilarious)! but some of her illustrations speak for themselves and her art itself is very well mastered: Nathalie Jomard
she can be cartoony or very poetic. I mean, how cute is that?

I have many artists that inspire me but, honestly, how do you get any better than:
Sam Nielson
I mean: HOW!!???
This is pretty great too imo:
Just so many great artists out there. They are an inspiration but also kinda depressing to me if you know what I mean.
Someday....
Wow, so many great posts here!
I want to mention Michael Bedard. The sitting ducks series is awesome.
So many artists influence and encourage me. The two that spring to mind immediately are James Gurney and Terryl Witlach. I've followed their work since high school and both of them have encouraged and motivated me to improve over the years...hopefully a trend that continues! I also follow TONS of artists online via instagram, tumblr, deviatnart, etc...but it would take pages to list them all.
The artists that influence me right now are
Jota Leal
Terada Katsuya
Torren Thomas
Lars-Erik Roberson
Jason Seiler
Kim Jung Gi
Thomas Fluharty

The first one is from Sam Nielson, the second is from Silly Beast Illustration (I forget the artists name at the moment).
@mattramsey Therese Larsson XD great artist!
I just discovered Marco Bucci. He loves to express himself with color. Watch his videos on youtube!

his website: http://www.marcobucci.com/
Now I realized I defenitely saw that last picture in some SVS video, so its not such a discovery
@JiÅ™Ã-Kůs Oh yeah, he is great! He has a sketchbook class on SVS too!!
@JiÅ™Ã-Kůs I just added these to my Pinterest collection. I love this artist and his painterly style.
I have been keeping up with Nathan Fowkes' postings on his blogs for several years. I don't think there is a better person out there to emulate when it relates to environments and lighting. James Gurney is another great. Here is a good example of Nathan's sketches he posts. He's been doing these daily in gouache for years.
