Just art by me

I haven’t much felt like writing. So this is all images. Here are a few more. Stay well.

Collage by KimberlyGerryTucker

I was thinking how I’ve not been productive lately, artly speaking. And then I went through old canvases. I’ve made quite a few. The last few years 2017-2019 -has actually had quite the output. Some here are a combination acrylic and paper. Most are paper. In some cases, I’m posting portions of larger works. Like […]

Fluidity

I read a book about a Buddhist monk…

One of these things is not like the others, a spectrum brain sorting life stuff- art and earworms

…this feeling of helplessness and fear must’ve had a large effect on my psyche. This collage is all paper of course- maybe hundreds of pieces so far, and as yet unfinished. It is a depiction of a recurring…

Singing Bowl Update

It sings! My son Silas works with crystals and all things spiritual. For those of you who read my blog about me not being able to get my singing bowl to sing, here’s an update. There was song in there after all! Here’s Silas:

Unashamed Voices- adult and still #Actuallyautistic

#Actuallyautistic …You don’t stop having sensitivities, communication challenges, being autistic… just because you become an adult.

Give Trees a Chance- Visual Musings from an eco-artist

There are a few digital here, but most (90%) are collage/acrylic, collage, or acrylic. Putting the trees in one place, here in this homage to trees, painting and collage crops. Trees and more trees. Astonishes me how much time I’ve spent. Well spent I enjoy it. I never really realized how much I’ve painted trees…until […]

Help… I’m drowning in Paper!

Hi folks, if you follow my blog-then you know I’m rarely idle. I encourage you to share this post. There was a time I did not want my artwork seen and in a way, that’s still the case, believe it or not. It’s hard to hit “send” when I share it. I talk about my […]

Video Presentation: School, Art, and Selective Mutism/Autism

When I had a presentation on a panel at Lesley college a few years ago, I was the only presenter who did not step up to the microphone and address the crowd. I had a prerecorded video presentation instead. It is not easy to do these things. It amuses me I chose the art room/pan […]

Art is Not A Crime and other miscellany

Look for my friend Keri in the audience of an upcoming Let’s Make a Deal. Although she wasn’t chosen, she had great seats and got lots of screen-time. On a different tack, don’t fall for the Slovenia scam. I’d no sooner delete the number and block it then another call would come in. Thank goodness […]

Flashbacks to general chaos (or Frying Pans)

…the said General, has the implied job of generals: control over chaos. …’your audience cannot hear you unless you are vulnerable.’

Symbolism and trees and art and noses on the feet and stuff

One client in a wheelchair liked to throw his ball at my stool. He carried it everywhere on his lap. He’d roll up to me and throw it at me as I painted. I’d get down and hand it to him. That went on for a few days…

When Life Gives You Tiddlywinks

An only child of seven or eight years old with the long ribbon of summer unfurled ahead of me, I wouldn’t say I got bored a lot. I enjoyed my own company, the cat and dog, and the outdoors with its insects and trees, way too much to be bored. But sometimes I’d be in […]

Spring (and then there were two)

It seems like Winter lasted from September to May here but finally signs of warmer weather include baby birdies in nests and concert tickets purchased. Spring occurrences; rituals. I look forward to following my favorite music to different venues. This year, the band LIVE opens for them. A band I’ve seen a few times that […]
