Cultural Writing. Art. Tucker Nichols' POSTCARDS FROM VERMONT documents some of the stream of postcards he sent to Gallery 16 from Vermont where he was getting married in the summer of 2006. "I spent the month of June with my wife at her late grandmother's farmhouse in Vermont preparing for our wedding. We spent our days painting the house and raking muck from the pond in the company of an old blind dog. Before I left San Francisco, I told Griff I'd send him a few postcards from the country. I made these drawings in a small studio beside the pond using whatever materials I could find in the desk up at the house"--Tucker Nichols.
