He worked on sets such as Happy Days, Mork and Mindy, Mur - der She Wrote, Hardcastle and McCormick, 21 Jump Street and many others. According to a Virgin Valley Artist’s Association bio, his art - work creates illusions between dimensions. Teri Nehrenz photos “Everything you see can be an illusion,” Tucker said. “What you see is not necessarily what is really there. You’re getting a bouncing off your retina of images that are moving through space and time, to create an idea of what you think you’re see- ing. I use my artwork to create illusions to show people that all kinds of possibilities exist. The existence of UFO’s fills all these possibilities, including physiology and mind-bending realities.” His current gallery exhibit displays the possibilities he dis - cusses and is space and alien in nature with geometrical work as well, some kaleidoscope-like in appearance.
