- Charles Callins was an Australian naïve painter from Queensland. He started painting in his sixties after retiring from a lifetime working as a compositor in the printing rooms of various newspapers. He is best known for his paintings of the coastlines around Cairns, North Queensland. His maritime paintings are characterised by unusual distortions of perspective and aerial viewpoints. Callins gained commercial and critical attention in the 1960s through his association with the contemporary art gallery Gallery A, in Sydney. John Olsen has praised Callins for his "wild eyed innocence" and his "wonderful sensibility of being Australian". Works by Callins are held in the permanent collections of the National Gallery of Australia and the Queensland Art Gallery. (en)
