Therese Tucker

I'm Therese Tucker, the artist behind Starthistle & Quartz, where I create work that travels between the waking world and the dreaming one and brings back what it finds.
My paintings live at the intersection of whimsical elegance and soul deep truth, dreamlike creatures, storybook worlds, and quiet messages woven into every piece. I work primarily in gouache, watercolor, and ink.
After eleven years in Brooklyn, I returned to my native Pacific Northwest, where I now paint from my coastal studio with my husband, two kids, and a houseful of cats for inspiration.
If you're drawn to art that feels like a piece of magic and a story at once, you're exactly where you're meant to be.

Therese received her BFA in Acting from Cornish College of the Arts and studied Mixed Media at the Gage Academy of Art in Seattle
