A brilliantly fun and colourful John Dyer original painting of Cornish mermaids at St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall. The sky is festooned with stars, the artist has used free painting techniques alongside brush strokes and colour to build up the magical atmosphere. A giant full moon illuminates the painting and puffins and seagulls fly through the night sky. We love this painting.
