Our first in-person exhibition since the pandemic has been a huge success. The exceptional exhibition exhibited a wide range of our gallery paintings next to the latest paintings of Cornwall by all our artists and a unique collection of new paintings from Kenya that artists John Dyer and Joanne Short completed during and after their recent expedition for our acclaimed Last Chance To Paint educational project.
We also exhibited a stunning small collection of new paintings by Cornish artist Ted Dyer exhibited alongside his extraordinary recent works.
The paintings in the exhibition all have a solid link to the environment and biodiversity. The African canvases focus on endangered wildlife and the Maasai tribe and culture threatened by climate change. The Cornish canvases celebrate the wildflowers and ocean life that can be found around the coast.
John Dyer has also been appointed the Artist in Residence for the Tall Ships Races 2023. His official painting will be displayed in the exhibition celebrating this fantastic event.
The exhibition included one of John Dyer's largest-ever paintings, a stunning painting of St Michael's Mount with a glimpse of underwater life and even a humpback whale! The painting is 48 x 60 inches on canvas and is spectacular.
Joanne Short exhibited some of her most significant ever oil paintings, with an extraordinary painting of 80 cm x 80 cm on canvas of the gorgeous Tresco Abbey Gardens and a stunning 100 cm x 100 cm canvas of Helford Passage.
The Crypt Gallery is situated beneath the church building and Mariners Gallery of the St Ives Society of Artists in Norway Square, St Ives - just up from the harbour Wharf road on Church Place. In the 1940s, the Crypt Gallery became the base for the modernist and avante-garde artists Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson, Peter Lanyon and Sven Berlin - collectively known as The Crypt Group. On our blog, you can read more about buying paintings, more exhibition details and some of the Crypt gallery history.
A lovely art print bought as a memory of our holidays on the beautiful Isles of Scilly.
The frame is very well made and displays the art print beautifully. Ordering from John Dyer Gallery was simple and delivery swift. I would not hesitate to order from them again.
Thank you so much for the amazing customer service, and most beautiful painting of our favourite place
Absolutely beautiful painting. So thrilled with it. Completely amazing service: beautifully packaged, framed and safely delivered really quickly.
Lovely picture, bought 3 after our recent trip to Cornwall. Already thinking of getting more.
Have walked this coastal path from St Agnes to Chapel Porth and back countless time. I am now pleased that this fabulous print is the first thing I see every morning. Beautiful, happy colours. Nice frame. I’m now planning of ordering one of Mount’s Bay by same artist.
Such a vibrant, pretty piece. I visited Fowey Harbour recently and was looking for a small keepsake to have with me back in the U.S. Shipping abroad was seamless and I received this item quite quickly. I've had many compliments since putting this on my phone and am happy to be reminded of a wonderful trip to a magical place this summer.
As always professional , efficient and prompt .
We have been coming here for 27 years together. This is our place especially during lockdown. John has captured our place beautifully. I have many of John’s prints, always in my birthday, so this one for June is 😍 perfect. They always make me smile, colourful, fun and look perfect in our home
I found the whole experience flowed from start to finish. The customer service was exceptional, they couldn’t do enough for me. This is the kind of first rate service I would expect from such a professional artist. Thank you.
Lovely,bright and colourful ready to hang.
Bought back lovely memories.
Posted promptly too.
Thank you.
I have loved John Dyers work for many years. I have some prints at home and at work.
Gorgeous, vibrant colours. Reminds me of many happy evenings at the Minack when growing up in Cornwall. Special memories.
great service. Thank you.
I purchased “Bathing Belles” to add to 2 other John Dyer original paintings collected over the years .
We decorated our house and removed another trio of prints , so were hoping to find something suitable at John’s latest exhibition.
We were not disappointed . The colours are vivid and the painting has elements of my childhood : a trip on the Enterprise boat , snd swimming in the sea . There is also a signature seagull (oh how I love those seagulls !!) a chough , a puffin and a friendly seal . I like the play on the words in the title, with bluebells in the foreground .
The off white frames complement the colour palette perfectly .
I was extremely impressed on how quickly the painting was delivered after the exhibition - I had expected to wait at least a couple of weeks , but within days it was with me . As always it was packaged very carefully .
Stripy Swimmers is a joyous riot of exquisite colours and shapes. It has pride of place in my sitting room. Every day it lifts my spirits and energizes me to be creative myself. Thank you Joanne, your unique painting has a very happy home. Thanks also to you John for your expert eye - the frame perfectly enhances the explosion of colour. It was so robustly packaged I wouldn't hesitate to buy from the gallery again knowing that it will arrive safely. I am a very Happy Customer!
We have loved and been visiting Holywell bay for over 25 years. It's a real home from home for us. This picture captures the place for us perfectly.
The paper is such good quality, certainly worth the cost. Delivery was effortless.
