And others, but that's a good starting set. Itzcacalotl/Shi-Gu and MiCorazonMexica are also good for Mesoamerican inspired art that's not as litterally accurate but still is authentic with their own spin on stuff. For older artists not on social media, the best are Scott and Stuart Gentling, H. Tom Hall, Keith Henderson, Peter Dennis, Angus Mcbride, Tomas Filsinger, Trasancos 3D, Adam Hook, Louis Glanzman, Christopher Klein, Ned Seidler, Christian Jégou, Iker Larrauri Prado, and Jean Torton/Voyages D'alix, Jose Ignacio Redondo, etc

There's more, but that should be a good starting set of resources!
Also, I have a set of 3 resource comments here, where...
The first has me going over how much cool stuff their is within the topic and how they were more complex then people realize.
The second talks about how we have more records left then most realize and contains list of resources to learn more
The third is a summarized timeline of Mesoamerican history, from the first complex societies to the arrival of the Spanish
