Seaham SeascapeSeaham is on the North East Coast of England in County Durham. A place formerly of heavy industry, manufacture of glass and mining for coal. The beaches along by Seaham are often combed for glass, and is often turned into pendants by jewellery makers.
This seascape is just north of Seaham Harbour and on the horizon is Sunderland, a short drive north. This is a long exposure 20 seconds of the incoming tide over the sandstone rocks littered with kelp and barnacles. Available as canvas, prints and wall art at Photo4me

Prints at The Curo Gallery I recently had some prints of mine mounted for the guest room office which has been recently refurbished with a hideaway office and guest wardrobe.The walls were painted white in the south facing room to create a spacious feeling,and also to have some images hung on the walls.
After a discussion I decided to have some prints mounted for sale in the gallery. This is the selection I have chosen, as they are scenes relatively local to Sheffield in the Peak Distict. Damflask Reservoir, featured above is only minutes away from Hillsborough in Sheffield. These prints are available in A3 with 2" white mount at Curo Gallery, Middlewood Road,Sheffield Gallery Strawberry Reflecting With Cream This is the final image of the collection of work in the style of Dominic Murray
Another port sipper was used as the prop to hold the cream and the strawberry placed at its feet. Set against a black background on top of a mirror. Note again it is a true reflection in all the images in this little collection, and finished with an oil painting effect. This image has striking contrast of the creamy white red and green, which carries through from the Reflecting on Fruit Salad and the Port Sipping Chilli Seeing Double These were the three images without the textured finished the customer decided on for their apartment in Lanzarote, an island off Spain. Available as an A4 square format print at the Curo Gallery, Middlewood Road, Sheffield Port Sipping Chilli Seeing Double A port sipping pipe was used as a prop, literally to prop up the chilli.
This is another photograph from the commissioned works request from the Curo Gallery The glass has been filled with port, a rather nice Taylor's reserve. The port sippers were a Christmas gift from a close friend just over a year ago. They are so novel and made such an unusual prop, plus as the customer is taking them to Lanzarote. Although port originates from Portugal, I thought connection with the Iberian peninsular would be appropriate. Port sipping pipes have been around since the 16th Century. Available as an A4 square format print at the Curo Gallery Middlewood Road, Sheffield Chilli ReflectionA chilli reflecting in a mirror with a black backdrop. The image has been edited in CS6 Photoshop to give an oil painting textured finish.
This is one of a series of four photographs for a commission request from the Curo Gallery on Middlewood Road Sheffield. The request was to emulate the style of artist Dominic Murray. Although the chilli was photographed as you see it, however I think the image works well with the chilli in the upright position. Available as an A4 square format print at the Curo Gallery, Middlewood Road, Sheffield Reflecting on Fruit Salad This particular piece comprises of selection of fruit; a peach, kiwi fruit, cherries, strawberries and blueberries placed in and around a Chinese rice bowl, set on black background and a mirror to add a true reflection. I stipulate true as it has not been edited into the image.
This was a chance commission. Bev who runs the Curo Gallery was mounting some of images for the guest room/office and she had a recent request for 3 images representing fruit and chillies in the style of Dominic Murray. I have created four images and they are all finished with a textured oil paint finish in CS6. Incidentally the customer wanted a non textured finish on the three images they selected.
