James Hurley - Photo-artist

James is a Photo Artist that captures landscapes photographs as well as painterly portraits either in the comfort of his home or on location.

He is based in Huntingdon, near Cambridge, and has a passion for incorporating his emotions and frustrations into surreal artwork.

James is a self-taught photographer and Photo Artist he loves photography and the digital mixed media approach to artwork. His artwork ranges from simple colour corrections in landscape photographs to enhance an image, to a complex piece of art that is made up of multiple images blended together with textures and masked out with brushwork.

This month James has been continuing to create a series of images that celebrates both nature and the female form. This can be seen in the image titled “Together Forever”. In addition he has branched out into the relam of the Fae and brought two new images to life, the first of which is called ”Story Time” and this is partnered with “The Green Lady”. The goal is to continue the Natural Beauty series and have the Fae images as an offshoot of this theme but with a distinctly different type of atwork which leads more toward forest fantasy and myths.

In addition James has continued to work through the photographs he recently took whilst visiting Patterdale Hall Estate near Ullswater. THis is demonstrated by the photographs taken of a small section of Griesdale Beck which runs through the estate. All the fine art landscape photographs displayed here were taken using a tripod and a long exposure enabled using a neutral density filter.

All of these images will be available to buy as prints via James’s websote with a percentage of the sale proceeds of the photographs being donated to the estate to help them carry on the the conservation work that they do to maintian this amazing piece of our countryside.
