“Richard Tuck’s paintings of have the cutoff composition typical of snapshots, reflecting Tuck's concerns with "what happens at the edges. He uses the comers and edges of walls, furniture and the body to construct clues to the scene without showing all of it. The thick paint and coloring of these cross the style of Wayne Thiebaud with the objective detachment of Phillip Pearlstein's nudes.” - Daily Tarheel, ‘84
