Colin John McCahon (1 August 1919, Timaru, 1. august 1919 - Auckland, 27. maj 1987) bio je novozelandski likovni umjetnik. Tokom života je radio i kao kustos galerija i kao predavač na umjetničkim školama. Najpoznatija McCahonova djela su zidne slike sa religijskim tekstovima, kao i pejzaži inspirirani istraživanjima Sir Charlesa A. Cottona. Uz Tossa Wollastona se smatra najzaslužnijim za dolazak moderne umjetnosti na Novi Zeland.
