I use about 20 different colours to retain the luminance in my work.
John Dyer
Image
I realised that if I did what I wanted to do, it would work.
John Dyer
Image
I use a wide selection of colours. It is impossible to produce work like mine using only the primary colours as they only mix a certain range of colour.
John Dyer
Image
I have improved the way in which I paint. The colours are cleaner and there is more energy in the brush work.

I really enjoy squeezing out a big lump of paint directly onto the canvas and leaving it fresh, immediate and sometimes shocking.
John Dyer
Image
My optimism for life carried through my work.
John Dyer

I want to paint big, bright, optimistic pictures of the place I love.

St. Michaels Mount is a favourite place of mine people will walk across to the Mount all day and assume they will be able to walk home. The spectacle of hundreds of people realising that the path they walked over on is disappearing under several feet of water is very amusing.
John Dyer
Image
And he that will this health deny, Down among the dead men let him lie.
John Dyer
Image
I paint what I see, not what a camera would see.

Image
My great love is my home county of Cornwall, I love to sit and watch people enjoying themselves on the beaches and in the harbour towns of Cornwall.
John Dyer
Image
I have been surrounded by artists and paintings throughout my life. My father Ted Dyer is an artist, and from a very early age I have spent time painting and drawing.
John Dyer
Image
I decided to become a painter when my first four paintings where all published and attracted a great deal of interest. I exhibited one of them and it was sold.
John Dyer
Image
I apply paint directly from the tube and with my fingers.

Image
The paintings by Van Gough and Chagall had a big influence on me.
