Painting

Graham Nickson is a British painter and draughtsman born in 1946 whose practice centres on figurative drawing and painting, particularly the human form rendered through gestural mark-making and tonal study. Working across charcoal, graphite, and oil, his approach reflects a sustained engagement with classical figuration within postwar modernism.
