You're welcome! Yeah, unfortunately it isn't around so much - perhaps because people don't realise how versatile it is, or because they just don't have an interest themselves.
I've ridden side saddle myself, but not for a while. I don't have a horse at the minute, but in college there were a couple who worked in them very well. I got quite addicted As for directing you to other artists, I'm afraid I don't know of any off the top of my head, other than myself. It could be worth checking out dA groups - there used to be a side saddle one, and it may still be around, though I don't know if it's active.
My RP stable is called Lakewood Farm, and my most predominant side saddle horse is an Arabian called Aphie (ridden by a character called Chess) - you're welcome to search for her in my gallery if you like (though some of the older art is quite terrible). Her daily tack is literally a side saddle. I do also have plans to train up a horse called Nuriel under side saddle, but this year has been very tight for time, so its been put on a back burner.
I hope that helps in the meantime, though!

It's complete madness but I would LOVE to have a go!
The woman who holds the record for highest side saddle jump (At least in the uk) had only been riding SS for 6 months- I was amazed hahaha
