The Painted Picnic Tables of Tucker

April 7, 2021

I painted two small picnic tables for Turning Sun School in Tucker, Georgia. I grew up near Tucker and around Tucker but I never felt like I knew Tucker. My friend Hawk grew up in Tucker. So did Sherry. I drove near Tucker. My grandma took me to Tucker. I thought of the area as NorthLake. Perhaps that was the problem. To call an area a name based on a shopping mall could be a problem. I got my braces from Dr. James in 6th grade. That would have been considered Tucker. I am Tuckered out. At least my teeth are straight.

At this point in my life I have children and I drive to Tucker so I painted tiny children sized picnic tables for the preschool.

See you soon,
