About the Item
Set against the dramatic silhouette of a cool-toned mountain range, “Divers with Blue Mountain” by British artist Dan Parry-Jones features two figures diving into a swimming pool, captured mid-motion near a stylized poolside scene. With a bright orange sky and graphic blue mountain range, the composition balances bold geometry and expressive texture with a tranquil sense of space and suspended energy. Dominated by shades of deep blue, teal, orange and soft sand, the palette evokes a crisp, high-altitude light—suggesting a pool retreat nestled in a mountainous, modernist landscape.
As with all of Parry-Jones’s work, surface and memory are central. Built up through layers of acrylic, collage, screen print, and distressed markings, the piece possesses a tactile, weathered quality—like a sun-faded photograph or cherished postcard. Grids and lines intersect with painterly brushwork, giving the artwork an architectural rhythm that echoes the clean lines of mid-century resort design.
At once nostalgic and graphic, Divers with Blue Mountain is a striking statement piece for collectors drawn to coastal abstraction, contemporary figurative work, and modern landscape art with cinematic and architectural undertones. It beautifully bridges past and present—ideal for interior spaces with a love for design, mood, and memory.

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.
