I think Cornwall is a lovely restful place ~ would love to get down there to live one day. My in-laws are locals so we get down as often as we can ~ quite the car journey though!
This painting is done by a contemporary artist l admire called John Dyer. I think that his paintings are a lovely representation of Cornish villages, cliff tops and harbours. They leave you feeling dreamy and wanting to visit. The bright colours are refreshing and the imagery bold ~ I think a little like folk art.
Barbara Hepworth said about the landscape of Cornwall:
“Landscape is strong - it has bones and flesh and skin and hair. It has age and history and a principle behind its evolution”
