You may be thinking of Egon Schiele (one of my personal favorites). I don't think he was anorexic but he was very thin and often exaggerated it in his self-portraits.

Yep, Id say its Egon Schiele too. Makes the human figures look quite angular and exaggerates their form- in this case makes them, and himself anorexic.
