Artists who look at 'self-indulgence'?

I'm currently starting my final major project for my foundation art and design degree, I really want to look at self-indulgence maybe with food, vanity or hobbies. Some ideas I've had is the eroticism of food or "food porn" or when people take their appearance to extremes; tattoos, piercings and "drag queens".

Both of those ideas seem very different but I specialise in portraits so would probably incorporate portraiture into the food idea. The only problem is that I've been trying to find artists who maybe look at similar things for me to research, but if I google "self indulgence/self indulgence art" it just comes up with fan art for a band called 'Mindless Self Indulgence' haha.

If you can think of any that would help so much, I have one so far "Lee Price" she's one of my favourite artists.
