Biography, Experience, Current Projects and Fee Schedules
General information: "I am a professional artist creating liturgical/spiritual sculpture for the building and for the renovation of sacred spaces. Whether the sculptural theme is a concept, an individual, or a relationship, I am committed to capturing grace and beauty in the sculpture through sensitive design and meticulous finish work." Ruth B.

Sculptor Ruth Burink's creative design and technical mastery have established her studio's reputation for the highest standards in sculpture. Burink carves stone into inspired compositions ranging in size from tabletop to monumental. She designs with consideration for the client, the space, and the theme, collaborating closely with clients to insure that their vision is attained. Her work remains in the original stone medium or is cast in bronze depending on the requirements of the congregation and the nature of the space.

The cost of stone sculpture ranges between $1800 and $2600 per cubic foot for a single image depending on complexity. Bronze sculpture will also include foundry costs. These are only approximate fees and will vary with the client's requirements. Please explore www.BurinkSculpture.com to view more sculpture and for additional information.
