Iain Nicholls says of his work ‘Subject needs meaning and depth and so far the last few years I have been drawn to my day to day life and surroundings in Yorkshire. It’s as good a starting point as any as my paintings are also about me being able to use my imagination, enjoying the freedom to see where a painting can take me. I see making a painting a bit like doing an experiment, and my ideal state to be in when painting is one of playing – whether its with form, colour, the initial subject, the medium, or how all these things might relate to each other.’
