Unsigned, but illus. 'Dream Time - Machine Time, The Art of Trevor Nickolls,' Ulli Beier, 1985, plate 18 (book included): ''in 1984 Trevor Nickolls lived in a studio overlooking Manly Point. The beautiful view was marred to him by the suburban villas and affluent yachts; symbols of the European invasion. Feeling thoroughly isolated in the wealthy, leisurely suburb of Manly, Trevor Nickolls tried to visualise the beauty of this landscape before the coming of the white man. The painting relies heavily on the Papunya 'dotting' technique.'' -
