a letter I will be sending to galleries...
A. Tucker Studios
This is a quick update to let you know how things have been developing inside my studio this past year. I hope to be able to send out a new update once or twice a year, which will keep you up-to-date with the evolution of my work.
Time in the studio this year has been fruitful. I started 2007 building upon my grid paintings. I began adding new elements to blocks of scratched paint. Playful Images of toys, crowns, and plant forms reflected my anticipation of the birth of my first child, Maisy.
I am always working in both paper and paint — while my oils are drying I am cutting collages. Mid-summer I started making collage work that employed simple shapes based on industrial landscape designs. Soon this work began to develop into something interesting and worthy of further exploration. In the months since I started, the paintings have become more representational, starting out with simple forms and evolving into images of bridges, factories, and urban landscapes.
I am excited about the new direction my work is taking and hope to venture into more ambitious areas as it develops. As always I am eager to get the work out into the public eye and hope that you too will be interested in setting up time in the next year to see and show the work. I plan to have some of these paintings photographed and images sent to you very soon.
