My father is a well known artist, Ted Dyer, who has been painting for many years. Our work is very different, but growing up surrounded by paintings, paints, easels and art books does have an effect.
In some parts of the world there is very little tidal movement.
The paintings by Van Gough and Chagall had a big influence on me.
Digital media has destroyed much of the magic and mystery of the medium.
I want to paint big, bright, optimistic pictures of the place I love.
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.
