Helen Galloway McNicoll (1879-1915) was a Canadian impressionist painter.
Born in Toronto, she became deaf in childhood as the result of scarlet fever. She attended the Art Association of Montreal, studying under William Brymner from 1899. In 1902 she moved to England to study in London at the Slade School and later in St Ives, Cornwall with Algernon Talmadge.
A member of the Royal Society of British Artists and an associate of the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts, she died in Swanage, Dorset, where she had made her home, aged only thirty six. An obituary described her as "one of the most profoundly original and technically accomplished of Canadian artists".
