Pixiv is a site that was made for japanese artists, though it's technically open to anyone.
An unconventional way is to look for artists from yearly releases. I have 2022 of this one:

And you can even find regional artists from similar artbooks

Edit: I forgot to mention but you don't have to purchase the physical book, you can find the features artists like so:

Pixiv is what I've been using. I guess I should research Japanese tags better. I really wish there was a "no balloons" or just a "natural looking" tag to filter it. I will definitely look at the artists other artists interact or follow though. That's a good idea.
Another note is that if you use any social media with following:followers, popular artists usually have their mutual artist circle as followed, so you can bounce around artists just by looking at who they follow.
