This Somerset painting is a piece of original art painted with oil on canvas by Cornish artist Ted Dyer.

“Blue Water and Wild Iris, Swanpool” is a tranquil 20 x 24-inch oil on canvas by Cornish artist Ted Dyer. In this enchanting lakeside scene, a pair of children stand at the water’s edge, their soft pink dresses reflected in the clear blues of Swanpool. Framing the view are clusters of vivid yellow iris, blooming in the tall reeds along the shore and lending a warm, summery energy to the composition.

Ted’s masterful brushwork and delicate use of light capture the gentle sparkle on the lake’s surface, while the lush backdrop of rolling hills and cliffs imbues the painting with a sense of calm and timelessness. For collectors seeking a serene reminder of Cornwall’s natural beauty, this original artwork offers a moment of quiet wonder, an invitation to pause, breathe, and cherish the fleeting magic of a summer’s day by the water.
