Crowdfunding: Connecting Creators and Patrons

Hmm. This is interesting to me. Are there any artists (by which I mean musicians, artists, writers, dancers, etc) whose work has endured for you, or do all of them fade?

There are people whose work I no longer enjoy, though I did when younger. But there are people who continue to give me pleasure. This latter category is smaller than the former, but I do have some people that will probably always bring me pleasure....
