A COMMENT FROM RUTH BURKE
As the artist, I enjoy the "art of seeing" while creating etchings from life and placing them onto film. I refer to the image on film as my "photographic etching", similar to a printing plate that is used to make a print. I use the giclee method to produce a fine art quality print on luster paper, rag paper or canvas.
From this Web site you will learn details about photography and my quest for a compelling image from the personal comments that accompany each image. Visit unique places around the world and take notice of the small details that I present in my photographs. Feel the texture of life in each image and smell the sweet scent of color as it guides your eye through the piece. When viewing an image, think about how the photograph makes you feel and the experience of viewing it daily as a print on your wall.
You can purchase a photograph on this Web site printed on three different types of surfaces. Each is a hand-crafted fine art print made with the giclee method using the highest standards for maximum archival stability and beauty. The group of images shown below illustrate the details of the different print options.
We invite you to browse the different sections and think about creating a grouping of images with a similar theme for your walls. At our store, Seaside Gallery, we can also assist you with custom framing your print.
We are continually adding to this Web site from Ruth´s stock photography files, including many historic and current stock photos of the Texas Gulf Coast, Kemah Boardwalk, Texas landmarks, waterfowl and nature of Texas.
Enjoy browsing new images and reading about each image and our unique printing process for creating a beautiful print that lasts lifetimes!
