  • I love Thomas Kinkade's work...I went to a store dedicated to him once, boy are his paintings expensive! So I resort to putting together his puzzles and gluing them...that and his calenders.
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 06-05-03 AT 01:14PM (CST)[/font][p]Hi! I just couldn't resist commenting on this . . . regarding Thomas Kinkade. Have you ever seen the painting "Split Rock"? It is a real lighthouse in Minnesota, just recently he started painting a series of real lighthouses. When we originally saw the painting we DROVE 7 hours to see the real thing, we took pictures of it from the same angle as the painting and we actually purchased the painting about 3 months ago. Strange, huh? People have asked me what's so cool about lighthouses, but I just can't explain it! Anybody who doesn't know Thomas Kinkade's work just needs to check out the paintings. He's the "Painter of Light".
  • What's cool about lighthouses is 1) view from the top after you about die climbing up 2) Their history 3) they are near large bodies of water 4) their symbolism

  • > Have you ever seen the painting "Split Rock"?

    Congratulations on acquiring "Split Rock"! His whole lighthouse series is fantastic. I haven't acquired any of them as yet, but certainly hope to one day.
  • You and me both! I became acquainted with Kinkade via jig saw puzzles. I buy every one I can find, and have done 3 of his 3000-piece puzzles (actually, I forgot to mention that one of them is in a puzzle caddy under my bed, along with the storage boxes and cat toys mentioned in my original answer). I have purchased two of his prints at one of his specialty stores - both on the day I had my first interview for my current job (my spouse discovered the store in the area while I was in the interview.) Felt like a good omen, which proved correct!
  • My mother introduced me to his works years ago with a book he had about home and love and marriage and faith-- she gave it to me and my husband as an anniversary gift. Since that time, I've managed to collect a few of his paintings and a few of his signature plates. There is just something about looking at his art that soothes and calms me.
