An artist reception will be held Thursday, September 17th from 5 to 8pm. Tucker will be in attendance. All are welcome to attend.
 
As an artist, W. Tucker has always been a bit of an opportunist, scribbling his own unique timestamp on a wide array of found objects from the past. A scrappy cast of characters tumbles to life from his non-dominant hand, scrawled across vintage book covers, children's blocks, and old records from his favorite thrift shops, abandoned cabinet doors, and homemade cement objects. His work is contemplative, his process completely unplanned. Without fixed intention or control, his markings take on a deeper meaning- each wavering line warrants our attention. Here, a stick-figure wears a hat; there, a joyful elephant.
