St. Michaels Mount is a favourite place of mine; people will walk across to the Mount all day and assume they will be able to walk home. The spectacle of hundreds of people realising that the path they walked over on is disappearing under several feet of water is very amusing. John Dyer amuseassumeday share on social

I use a wide selection of colours. It is impossible to produce work like mine using only the primary colours as they only mix a certain range of colour. John Dyer colourimpossiblemine Change image and share on social
