Painting Description
‘Sexy Curves, Nice’ is a vibrant original acrylic on canvas painting by acclaimed British artist John Dyer. Measuring 30 x 30 inches, it captures the sunlit sweep of Nice’s famous Promenade des Anglais with the Hôtel Negresco gleaming proudly at its heart.
Inspired by the artist's recent painting time on the Côte d’Azur, the composition celebrates the fluid curve of the bay and the joyful rhythm of Mediterranean life. Swimmers, sunbathers, and cyclists animate the scene, framed by palms and agaves under a summer blue sky. Every brushstroke radiates Dyer’s distinctive use of colour and his instinctive response to the world around him.
This painting forms part of the artist’s celebrated French collection, created during his travels through the South of France. It brings together his signature storytelling and vivid palette to express the beauty, warmth, and sensual charm of the Riviera.
An uplifting statement piece for collectors seeking an original work by one of Cornwall’s best-loved artists, and a vibrant addition to any contemporary art collection.

This piece is a quintessential example of the vibrant, joyful style that has made John Dyer one of the most sought-after Cornish artists working today.

"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."

Happy dipping days
"I just couldn’t resist this lovely painting of ‘Chilly dippers’ especially as I have recently discovered cold water swimming for myself! This reminds me of the fun and sheer exhilaration of swimming in the open air with like minded friends. Thank you John for this wonderful portrayal."

The Best Present Ever!
"I wanted a present, to cheer up my husband, who had been poorly, working far too hard, and was feeling a bit ‘under the weather’. The colours and happiness that radiate from the painting are amazing and hypnotic. It was the best gift I could ever have bought, he was gobsmacked and so pleased...and the swift and friendly service from John and his wife Joanne, who delivered the painting themselves, was excellent."

Stunning painting
"I am so thrilled with this purchase - the painting brings joy to my whole family every time we see it on our wall (and it’s the first thing we see when we enter our home!). The colours are beautifully vibrant and there’s something new to appreciate each time you look at it.

This painting really captures the atmosphere
"I’m so thrilled with this latest addition to my John Dyer collection. I can almost smell the delicious aroma wafting from the cooking pot on the fire!

Many thanks and I look forward to adding more paintings over the coming years."
