About this ebook
"My mission as an artist is to capture those special moments in life adorned with beauty and light. I work to create images that project a serene simplicity that can be appreciated and enjoyed by everyone. That's what I mean by sharing the light." --Thomas Kinkade
Collectors and fans worldwide were awed by Thomas Kinkade's mastery of capturing the beauty and warmth of light in subjects as varied as windswept seas, majestic mountains, idyllic meadows, peaceful forest glens, cozy cottages, quaint villages, and inviting front porches. It earned him the nickname "The Painter of Light" and made him America's most widely collected artist.
On their own, his tranquil, luminous paintings affirm the basic values of family, home, faith in God, and the beauty of nature. Here, they are displayed with heartwarming and inspirational thoughts and sentiments for an experience that is profoundly moving and uplifting.
Thomas Kinkade
As America’s most-collected living artist, Thomas Kinkade has become a kind of Norman Rockwell for the new millennium. Kinkade has parlayed his background as a California family man and devout Christian to preside over a growing art empire that includes everything from books and prints to Bible covers and furniture fabric. Virtually unknown until the late 1990s, the self-described "painter of light" has seen his artistic talent develop into a company listed on the New York Stock Exchange, a thriving website, a string of walk-in galleries, and a strong presence on the QVC home-shopping network. (A USA Weekend report noted that the artist’s share in the company stock was worth up to $30 million.) Because editions of his prints sell in the millions, an "original Kinkade" is a virtually unattainable object. He is a best-selling author and has illustrated such books as A Child’s Christmas at St. Nicholas Circle by Douglas Kaine McKelvey
