a founder of nonprofit organization Bright Day Foundation and for-profit company Bright Day Big Blocks.
Decades ago Laurel Tucker attended Peck School of the Arts, in Milwaukee, which is part of the University of Wisconsin system. There she studied illustration, print making, painting and pottery. Today she is a recognized fine artist with her work on display in galleries and museums nationwide - most recently her botanical illustrations were featured at The Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens in San Marino, California.
Although a fine artist by nature, in the 1980’s she transitioned into the fast-paced world of commercial art, spending the next decade at top ten global advertising agencies contributing creatively to clients such as Kellogg’s cereals, Skittles candies, Hyatt Hotels & Resorts, Oscar Myer Lunchables, Gerber baby products, among others. She won national and international recognition for her advertising creative work.
But by nature Laurel Tucker is, and always will be a fine artist - majoring in botanical illustration, and abstract water color painting. As well as a lover of all children, always supporting their happy, healthy development through the power of play and play-based learning.
Since May of this year Laurel Tucker’s work has been on display, and featured in a gallery exhibit titled
“In + Out of the Frame”, in San Antonio, Texas - where 100% of the proceeds from the sale of her art will benefit the Bright Day Foundation, and specifically its child development program called Title One Derful.
Title One Derful benefits Title 1 schools, which are those most financially in need. Title One Derful donations are translated into classroom learning tool Bright Day Big Blocks, where the children are given an opportunity to play, and by engaging in creative, child directed play, they learn so much. Laurel Tucker says, “I love sharing my artistic expressions, my illustrations and paintings, and if donations through the sale of my art helps children creatively express themselves through play with Bright Day Big Blocks, well then that’s just fantastic, isn’t it!”
