Gino Campagnaro is an Australian artist based in Adelaide, South Australia.

Originally from Sydney, he always lived close to the coastline and its many beautiful beaches.
Original paintings are inspired by Bondi – the beach and the suburb, where he lived for many years – as well as the mid-century mecca of Palm Springs in the US which he visited in 2019, and an Italian trip in 2017 to the Amalfi Coast.

Palm Springs especially created a platform of inspiration; The sun creating moody lights on the architecture and landscapes, people hiding inside mid century air-conditioned mansions from sweltering heat and venturing out for a swim or a cocktail around the pool. Everything seemed simple, in a complicated way.

His aim as a painter is to make the complicated simple. Always working to create a visually appealing picture with a palpable sense of space and atmosphere – the sort of idyllic architectural landscape or interior, with or without figures, you’d quite like to walk into.

His background as a creative director has led him to keep the edges, shadows and shapes simple and distinct.

He is Inspired by many artists such as Edward Hopper, David Hockney, and photographers such as Slim Aarons and George Byrne.
