About the Item
Dan Parry-Jones – Cornwall Beach
Mixed Media on Panel 47.2 x 31.5 in (120 x 80 cm)
White frame included
In "Cornwall Beach," British contemporary artist Dan Parry-Jones distills the essence of a coastal memory into a vibrant, layered composition rich with texture and emotion. Inspired by the atmospheric beauty of the Cornish shoreline, this mixed-media work evokes both the tranquility and fleeting energy of time spent by the sea.
Blocks of aquamarine, sea-glass green, chalky white, and sun-faded ochre suggest the color palette of windswept beach huts and weathered sand dunes. Amid this modern, structured patchwork emerges a loosely rendered figure of a boy swimmer, captured mid-movement in an abstract silhouette—an echo of childhood summers, solitude, and fleeting moments frozen in time.
Parry-Jones’s signature style combines architectural geometry with expressive painterly surfaces, creating a sense of constructed nostalgia. The balance between form and feeling invites the viewer to both recognize and reinterpret the landscape, blurring the boundary between memory and place.
This work embodies a mid-century coastal sensibility, making it an ideal focal point for contemporary interiors that value both warmth and refinement. With a strong visual rhythm and emotive presence, Cornwall Beach resonates with collectors drawn to themes of landscape, architecture, and abstract storytelling.

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.
