John Singer Sargent was one of the most influential portrait painters of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was known for his elegant and sophisticated painting style, which was characterized by soft, flowing brushstrokes, subtle gradations of color, and a focus on capturing the essence of his subjects. He is arguably one of the best portrait artist that ever lived. (My humble opinion)

Wayne Thiebaud is an American painter known for his vivid and colorful representations of everyday objects, such as cakes, pies, and ice cream sundaes. His works often play with light and shadow, color and texture, and create a sense of depth and dimension that draws the viewer in. Thiebaud's paintings celebrated the simple pleasures of life, such as food and leisure, and made them into works of art that were accessible and relatable to a broad audience. By elevating the status of these objects, Thiebaud created a sense of nostalgia and sentimentality that resonated with many people.
