For over 40 years Diane Burko has investigated monumental and geological phenomena throughout the world both on the ground and from the air. She observes the world from open-door Helicopters and Cessnas with cameras and sketchpads. Her paintings are derived from that process. Her subjects include the Pacific Northwest, the fjords of Scandinavia, the volcanoes of Hawaii, and her home environment in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

Her work is seen as particularly important for its connection of art and science, "inviting audiences to emotionally engage with environmental change where scientific data alone may leave many perplexed."
