About the Item
"Across the Pool" by Dan Parry Jones. Comes with a custom white wooden frame. Two young children sit at the edge of a tranquil pool, basking under the radiant glow of a full sun as it beams across a stylized, mid-century modern setting. In Dan Parry-Jones’s Across the Pool, the viewer is transported to a sun-drenched scene where architecture, childhood, and nature converge in perfect harmony. A Frank Lloyd Wright–inspired home with clean horizontal lines stretches across the composition, its modernist geometry mirrored beautifully in the still surface of the pool. Behind it, a range of light pink mountains glows against a vibrant orange sky, enhancing the dreamlike atmosphere of late afternoon calm.
Parry-Jones brings his signature mix of acrylic, collage, and screen print to the surface, building rich, tactile layers that give the work depth and an aged, timeworn beauty. Soft painterly washes, subtle architectural grids, and weathered textures suggest memory and nostalgia, while the clear forms and cinematic color palette lend the piece a crisp, contemporary edge.
Across the Pool is an evocative celebration of youth, leisure, and modernist aesthetics, perfectly suited for collectors of coastal abstraction, mid-century-inspired art, and contemporary figurative landscapes that radiate warmth, design, and emotion.

DAN PARRY-JONES (b. 1971, United Kingdom) A textured bright colour palette and sweet nostalgic figures brimming with images of palm trees, swimming pools and timeless Palm Springs-like mountainous scenery are all ingredients mixed media artist Dan Parry-Jones uses to create his memorable works of art. A graduate of University of Derby (1994, BA Hons in Graphic Design) and Winchester School of Art (1991), Parry-Jones is fascinated by the relationship between the manmade and nature. Parry-Jones experiments with a style of painting that continues to evolve after spending time in Europe, particularly southern Spain; these new paintings juxtapose elements both organic and artificial, as panoramic mountain ranges provide a backdrop to flat, still pools and brightly painted walls. His work bears the same stylistic hallmarks that draw influence from Richard Dierbenkorn and Robert Rauschenburg, with shapes of flat colour set against highly textured areas where paint and glued paper has been scraped back to reveal many layers beneath. In sharp contrast to this scarred and sanded background, are sharply focused areas of screen-printed detail featuring his distinctively nostalgic subject matter; kids, cars, buildings, that bring the viewer back to a bygone time on the fringes of our memory. Dan Parry-Jones is based in Bristol, United Kingdom and is represented by DECORAZONgallery.
