Photographer
My name is Chris Bourke and I use my artist name ‘Bourky’ for my art because I do not see myself as a commercial photographer who is looking to earn a living from my art. I feel there are too many photographers around who are only focussed on making money; as a result the quality of the art is being diluted by people who are too focussed on trying to make a quick buck.
I have always had a great passion for photography since learning it in school in the early 90s, while using a 1970’s film camera and having to develop the pictures in a darkroom with Easil and chemicals.
I enjoy all aspects of photography and I don't have a specific niche at present, but living in Guernsey, I tend to gravitate towards landscape photography and have I have also done some portrait and wildlife photography as well.
