I just can't put my finger on who painted these. Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

They both appear to be German Expressionist paintings. The first is very much like Max Beckmann. The second one seems familiar, but I can't put my finger on whose work this reminds me of.

The first one is "the Lovesick Man" by George Grosz in the Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen

John is right : German expressionism painting.
The first one is George Grosz Lovesick man of 1916. Scroll down here :

The second is a painting by Heinrich Maria Davringhausen
(German ~ 1894-1970)
