Painting Description

This Cornwall painting is a piece of original art painted with acrylic on board by Cornish artist John Dyer.

In this exceptional original painting, John Dyer, Cornwall’s preeminent contemporary artist, captures the timeless charm and vibrant energy of a quintessential summer’s day at Castle Beach, Falmouth. 'Sunshine and Sea Life at Castle Beach, Falmouth', rendered in bold and joyous acrylics on board, measures 33 x 40 inches and transports the viewer to a sun-drenched coastal paradise where land, sea, and sky converge in a celebration of life and nature.

This masterful composition offers a dual perspective, highlighting both the colourful beachside activities and the bustling life beneath the surface of the water. Dyer’s playful use of colour brings to life the energetic beachgoers—children splashing in the waves, swimmers and sunbathers enjoying the serene waters, and yachts gently gliding by. The iconic Falmouth Hotel stands proudly on the shore, its grand architecture an anchor point in the scene, surrounded by lush palm trees and the lively summer holiday atmosphere.

Beneath the turquoise waters, a vibrant underwater world reveals itself—playful dolphins, colourful fish, and marine flora intertwine to create a hidden paradise. This juxtaposition of the every day and the extraordinary is a hallmark of John Dyer’s work, capturing both the surface beauty and the deeper connection to nature that is ever-present in his Cornish landscapes.

This original painting is a visual delight and a testament to John Dyer’s unique ability to distil the essence of Cornwall’s coastal charm and energy. His expressive style, characterised by bold colours and dynamic compositions, transforms familiar scenes into timeless works of art that evoke nostalgia and a sense of wonder. Collectors are drawn to Dyer’s work for its joyful celebration of life and the natural world, making each piece an uplifting and valuable addition to any collection.

Acquiring 'Sunshine and Sea Life at Castle Beach, Falmouth' offers more than an artwork; it is an investment in a piece of Cornish history and culture brought to life by one of the most influential painters of his generation. Dyer’s works are highly sought after by collectors worldwide, held in prestigious private and public collections, and his art continues to appreciate in value. This painting, with its vibrant celebration of coastal life, is sure to be a cherished centrepiece in any collection.

Available exclusively through the John Dyer Gallery, this is a rare opportunity to own a significant piece from one of Cornwall's most beloved artists.

John Dyer (born 1968)

"There is an innocence and freshness to John Dyer's art that follows a tradition in Cornwall that includes the paintings of Cornwall by Alfred Wallis, Christopher Wood, Fred Yates and Bryan Pearce. Rather than trying to record what he sees, John sets out to capture the 'essence' of his subject. The 'essence' of seagulls, cats, dogs, bobbing boats, or exploding fireworks communicate far more strongly through John's brushstrokes than they would if drawn more traditionally. It is this ability to capture the 'essence' of what is important that seems to appeal to his collectors who have shown great vision and originality in their own careers, such as Tim Smit, Alan Titchmarsh, Toyah Willcox & Kim Wilde."
