Australian male painters

Sir Hans Heysen (8 October 1877 – 2 July 1968) was an Australian artist. He became a household name for his watercolours of monumental Australian gum trees. One of Australia's best known landscape painters, he is remembered for his depictions of sheep and cattle among massive gum trees against a background of atmospheric effects of light, of men and animals toiling in the Australian bush, and arid landscapes in the Flinders Ranges. He won the Wynne Prize for landscape painting a record nine times.

Duncan Max Meldrum (3 December 1875 – 6 June 1955) was a Scottish-born Australian artist and art teacher, best known as the founder of Australian tonalism, a representational painting style that became popular in Melbourne during the interwar period. He also won fame for his portrait work, winning the prestigious Archibald Prize for portraiture in 1939 and 1940.

Ian Fairweather (29 September 1891 – 20 May 1974) was a Scottish painter resident in Australia for much of his life. He combined western and Asian influences in his work.
