Does it have to be painting or drawing? I ask because you should look at Bernini's sculpture here for example:

Remember this is Marble! - just think for a moment about the unbelievable skill to make something like this from a block of rock - it's simply staggering

Luca Signorelli - the artist that Michaelangelo was inspired by. His 'Judgement' is meant to have taken the depiction of the human body quantumly forwards. (Don't write like this in your essay.)

Stanley Spencer, Ingres, the classics like Rembrandt are always good for his use of colour on skin.
