Garth Nichol

Based in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales, Australian artist Garth Nichol explores the beauty of everyday objects through meticulously composed miniature still-life paintings. Drawing inspiration from the Dutch Masters, Nichol brings a contemporary sensibility to traditional still life, combining rich colour, considered light and intricate detail. His intimate compositions elevate the ordinary, revealing unexpected beauty in familiar forms, textures and imperfections. Quietly expressive and rich in character, each work invites a closer look and a moment of contemplation.
