Alexander Brook (July 14, 1898 – February 26, 1980) – American artist and critic who was born in Brooklyn.[5] During his twenties, Brooks painted still lifes and posed figures with vigor and sensuality. He later began to emulate the style of Jules Pascin.[6] From 1924 to 1927 he was the assistant director of Whitney Studio Club.[7] His realist painting was exhibited widely and he won multiple awards.[6]Georgia Jungle won the Carnegie Prize at the Carnegie International art exhibition. Unfortunately for Brook, the realist style fell out of favor late in the 1940s.[6]
Marion Greenwood (April 6, 1909 – August 20, 1970) – painter and engraver who had lived in Brooklyn.[8]
Breuk Iversen (born July 25, 1964) – lived in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and is the founding member of the art collaborative known as "Offalists", using common refuse as a medium.[9]

Her work can be found in many museums, including the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, Georgia and the Morris Museum of Art in Augusta, Georgia.[12]
Tim Okamura (born 1968) – painter based in Brooklyn[13] Okamura is known for his depiction of African-American and minority subjects in urban settings, and his combination of graffiti and realism.

He was also one of several artists to be shortlisted in 2006 for a proposed portrait of Queen Elizabeth of England.
David Salle (born September 28, 1952) – painter and leading contemporary figurative artist,[16] Salle helped define postmodern sensibility. His paintings and prints comprise what appear to be randomly juxtaposed images, or images placed on top of one other with deliberately ham-fisted techniques.
