Caravaggio the 16th Century BADASS
Caravaggio was a very well paid, rebellious artist who painted many controversial pieces, and was commissioned by the Catholic church to paint subjects such as profane love, and lots of half naked boys (sounds like foreshadowing to me!) All in all he would be the closest thing to modern day artists today.
Caravaggio painted this when he was a young boy...
He was also notorious for self portraits, this is one of him as Medusa
And another of him, slaying the giant David:
And another of him as Jesus..

Impressionism: My favorite
I have always loved impressionism. The brushstrokes and the almost surrealism of the painting, as if you've seen through the eyes of someone who may have had a little too much absinthe to drink. You have to admit that there is something very charming about Monet, Cezanne, and even Van Gogh's work. It's one thing to be so precise in your paintings like Van Eycke, but it takes just as much skill to pull off these masterpieces as well:
