This Cornwall painting is a piece of original art painted with acrylic on canvas with gold and silver leaf by Cornish artist John Dyer.
The coastal walk from Cape Cornwall to Pendeen Lighthouse is the inspiration for this fabulous new canvas from John Dyer. Painted as a nocturne with gold and silver leaf used in the sky to literally make the stars sparkle.
This magical painting captures the essence of Cornwall’s tin mines with the engine houses and chimneys standing proudly on the cliff edge. Cornish choughs and seagulls explore the coast and in the far distance the lighthouse of Pendeen illuminates and reflects in the sea below.
To protect the painting’s gilding it has been varnished with a two layer protective gloss UV varnish and is supplied framed and ready to hang.
