James Tucker
James Tucker works in watercolor, oil, acrylic, and pen & ink. As an artist, he seeks to present his visual and emotional responses to the Tennessee River Valley and to the people and places he encounters during his rambles around Chattanooga and during his travels.
A graduate of the University of Georgia, he studied with Lamar Dodd, David Paul, and Mike Torlen. He pursued further studies at the Atlanta College of Art and worked with Karen Stinnett at the Callanwolde Art Center. Much of his career was spent with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
His work has been represented by galleries in Athens, GA, Atlanta, GA, Greenville, SC, and Chattanooga, TN. He currently exhibits exclusively with In-Town Gallery in Chattanooga, TN.
