MEET THE ARTIST

Thomas Kinkade Studios

Thomas Kinkade, 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 the 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.

“Like a single sunbeam on a warm summer day, there is an exuberance and brilliance in a sunflower.” – Unknown The founder of our Studio, Thomas Kinkade, loved to explore the world around him. He never ventured anywhere without a notepad and a pencil in his pocket so he could sketch what he saw. What might Thom, or any artist from his atelier, capture on canvas if they were to ramble upon a huge sunflower field? The artists of Thomas Kinkade Studios pondered this question, explored some of our nation’s beautiful farmlands, and put paint to canvas to create Sunflower Fields. Imagine waking up every morning to bright sunshine and watching the sunflowers pivot to face the sun moving across the sky from east to west. The sounds of the metal windmill spinning as it pulls water from the well to feed the corn field, vegetable garden, grape vines, and sunflowers brings feelings of joy and relaxation to visitors. Even the cows grazing in the back pasture are enjoying the warmth of the sun. Key Points
