Hmmm. Hans Bellmer is probably my favorite overall, but he's better known as a surrealist photographer and illustrator. (His illustrations are almost affordable; I don't know if he's just not that well known, or if his surrealist eroticism isn't to everyone's taste, or what. But his 'puppet' photos are really fantastic and disturbing.)
Second is Egon Schiele, who died far, far too young during the Spanish Influenza epidemic. He was a protege of Gustav Klimt, and, IMO, would have eclipsed him had he lived.
Third is Lucien Freud, who has such expressive brushwork, and was a master of color and composition.

Currently it's Kim Diaz Holm
But it changes for me a lot, much like my taste in music
It flip flops all over the place but he's one artist I keep coming back to
I even have some prints of his art on my walls which I don't do very often

I'm not any kind of expert, but I've enjoyed most of Peter Doig's paintings.
