Kimberly Gerry-Tucker ART
I like working in Acrylic. Oils are buttery and vibrant, I adore working with them. But, I cannot deal with turpentine. Not only is the smell intolerable, but I’m always sure I’ll store it incorrectly and cause spontaneous combustion, leading to a fire that levels the whole neighborhood. So.
I like working in Acrylic.
Collage is my favorite medium. And my current one.
I used to throw clothespins with notes attached to them, at my parents to communicate, But thankfully I communicate differently now. Mainly through art and writing. Another thing has changed: I used to shove paintings away to gather coats of dust, nicks, and tears in the canvases. My artwork is literally out of the closet now.
A lot of my artwork is on display somewhere in New England. Maybe with AANE or elsewhere. I used to do a lot of gallery shows pre-pandemic.
Please 🙂 do not share images without permission 🙂
I’d most likely say yes anyway.
April 2020: Calli Hopper, below, was inspired by my collage (on left)
to make this cake (center)
and In turn, Michael Ryan Andolsek was inspired by Calli’s cake to make this fashion sketch (on the right). #sugarart4autism
I think maybe 10 to 12 people have been inspired by my art to make cakes. Isn’t this a cool world we live in?

My Podcast Interview with Different Brains aired March 26, 2018.
Don’t get excited, I am aware of the puzzle piece and its negativity surrounding the autistic community. I understand! We’re all adults here. This canvas is not to make a statement. I just had fun using cheaply sourced material that was colorful. Nothing more!
I was pretty upset when a tree I loved was killed.

this image depicts my favorite thing to do
Enrique from HaveSomeCake, Birmingham, England, chose my original Shattered image painting, to replicate into a cake. I love his interpretation. I was one of two other autistic judges who judged SugarArt4Autism’s cakes in 2017. I was on the board at Art of Autism for about 6 years and was responsible for the yearly Women’s History Month contest.
p.s. No bias with my judging! Enrique’s was not a finalist.
