Some artists known for their minimal painting style include:

- Agnes Martin - Martin's paintings often feature grids, lines, and pale colors, which convey a sense of order and tranquility.
- Donald Judd - Judd's works feature simple geometric shapes, such as cubes or rectangles, often made of industrial materials like metal or plexiglass.
- Frank Stella - Stella's works often feature large, monochromatic canvases with simple geometric shapes and bands of color.
- Robert Ryman - Ryman's works often feature white or off-white paint applied in thin, layered brushstrokes, highlighting the texture of the canvas or surface.
- Kazimir Malevich - Malevich's works, such as his famous "Black Square," are characterized by simple geometric shapes and stark, monochromatic colors.

These artists were influential in the development of minimalism, a movement in art characterized by extreme simplicity and a rejection of traditional artistic values such as emotion and expression.
