Fowey Royal Regatta - Fowey Classic Car Parade

Artist Joanne Short

Artist Joanne Short

Joanne Short is one of Cornwall's most acclaimed contemporary artists, with a devoted following among collectors across the UK, Europe and beyond. An elected member of the prestigious Newlyn Society of Artists, she is celebrated for her exquisite colourist oil paintings that capture the beauty, pattern and light of the Cornish coast with a joyful, distinctive hand. Her work is held by collectors including Alan Titchmarsh MBE and Toyah Willcox, and her official artist residencies at the National Trust's St Michael's Mount, the island of Tresco and the Hanbury Gardens in Italy reflect the wide esteem in which she is held. Fowey holds a particular place in Joanne's painting life. She has returned to its harbours, coves and coastal character many times over the years, and her deep feeling for the town's waterways and the life lived along them makes her a natural presence at the Fowey Royal Regatta and Fowey Classic Car Parade. Her paintings of the estuary and the Cornish summer are among the most loved in the gallery's collection.

Artist John Dyer

Artist John Dyer

John Dyer, one of Cornwall’s most celebrated contemporary artists, has forged an extraordinary painting career spanning over three decades. Renowned for his vibrant, celebratory works that capture the essence of Cornwall’s landscapes and seascapes, he’s pictured here before the iconic St Michael’s Mount, beside his faithful 2001 Dormobile Land Rover 110 County Station Wagon. This 12-seat, 4-berth classic serves as his mobile studio, camper van, and art transport. His paintings, cherished in international private collections and showcased in the UK’s public art collection, reflect his widely acclaimed talent. With prestigious residencies at the Eden Project, Tall Ships Regattas, and leading environmental organisations worldwide, John Dyer’s legacy as an artist—rooted in heritage and nature—resonates deeply with the spirit of the Fowey Royal Regatta and Fowey Classic Car Parade. His depictions of Cornwall’s maritime heritage make him a natural fit for the regatta, while his appreciation for classic vehicles aligns perfectly with the car parade.
