"Painter Man" is a song written by British singer Kenny Pickett and guitarist Eddie Phillips, and first recorded by their group the Creation. It was released as a single in October 1966. Written as a response to their avant-garde stage show, the single was their only top-forty hit on the UK Singles Chart, reaching number 36. It fared better in West Germany, where it reached number eight. It was later issued on their album We Are Paintermen.

One of the Creation's most well-known and popular compositions, the song has been covered by several artists. The first cover was that of the New Zealand band Larry's Rebels, who in 1967 took the song to number six on Kent Music Report. A later version by Boney M. reached the top-ten worldwide, including in the UK.
