Seaside Cottage
Art Notes
“The voice of the ocean speaks to the soul.”
– Anonymous
The enchanting setting sun radiates a warm glow as the ocean waves crash against the rocks on the seashore. The serenity of early evening fills the air, accented by the flowers’ beauty, the vibrant sunset, and the tranquil beach. The splash of the water from the breaching whales will bring a smile to those who are lucky to have witnessed their passing travels. The inviting cottage with its welcoming lights is the perfect place to enjoy Nature. Thomas Kinkade Studios presents Seaside Cottage, an idyllic sanctuary for all to refresh their faith, spirit, and soul.
Key Points
- Seaside Cottage portrays a signature Thomas Kinkade Studios cottage nestled against a spectacular coastal backdrop, perfectly capturing the tranquility of life at the shore.
- The two chairs set beside a firepit with a sandcastle nearby are symbolic of family memories made at the beach. Time spent telling stories around a fire, having fun playing in the sand, swimming in the ocean, and going for long walks on the beach are only some of the special moments that so many of us enjoy on trips to the shore.
- The pieces of driftwood are testaments to the power of the sea. Their beauty is symbolic of the transformative nature of spending time at the shore. Just as the sea molds the wood into something remarkable, time at the beach reshapes, rejuvenates, and refreshes each of us.
- Seaside Cottage is filled with wildlife, including seagulls, shorebirds, and breaching whales. Can you find the pair of squirrels looking for a snack?
- Two stately coastal Cypress trees stand behind the cottage providing shade and picturesque beauty.

why would I purchase this painting, while beautiful it was not painted by Thomas Kinkade correct?
Hello Paul,
Correct, this piece was not painted by Thomas Kinkade as he passed away in 2012. Thom, the famed “Painter of Light,” loved to share his passion for art and his creative process with other artists throughout his career. Thom believed in supporting artist development and exchanged ideas with artists. Through this collaborative environment, Thom passed down his methods and imparted the techniques, concepts, and vision for his signature Kinkadian style.
Today, the artists of Thomas Kinkade Studios apply many of the same techniques created and used by Thom during his lifetime; from sketching to digital and oil brushwork, to image recapture and his use of light. Over time, these mastered skills have evolved into a Kinkadian style of art adored by art collectors around the world.

But it’s not his painting. While it may indeed look nice, it’s not his. Understanding that even his own work unless number 1 was touched up and finished by others working for him. Still this isn’t his painting.
Hello VS,
True this is not a piece done by Thomas Kinkade. It was done and created by the Thomas Kinkade Studios, and is listed as such on the certificate of Authenticity included with the piece.

Hi. I have a cottage from the Thomas kinkade seaside village. They were bought in 2001. It has a place to plug in a light as well there is a wheel that water can run through.
we can’t live forever, but I believe his spirit will live on through the studio’s work, and as previously noted that inspiration will follow his legacy and till then enjoy
