MEET THE ARTIST

Thomas Kinkade

Thomas Kinkade, the Painter of Light™, emphasized simple pleasures and inspirational messages through his art – and the branded products created from that art. From textiles, to collectibles, to music and books, Thom gave credit to a higher power for both the ability and the inspiration to create his paintings. His goal as an artist was to touch people of all faiths, to bring peace and joy into their lives through the images he had created. Thom’s dearest wish had always been that his artwork would be a messenger of hope and inspiration to others – a message to slow down, appreciate the little details in life, and to look for beauty in the world around us. As millions of collectors around the world sit back and enjoy his artwork in their homes, there is no doubt that Thomas Kinkade had indeed achieved his goal of Sharing the Light™.

Thom often talked about Plein Air painting. In Plein Air, or open-air painting, the natural light is always changing as the sun moves across the sky and clouds can play with this natural light. He always traveled with a small portable studio and was ready to paint at any time. His passion with which he worked shows itself in the bold brushworks that brings Cottage in the Pines to life. Thomas Kinkade was raised with the majestic views of the mighty Sierra-Nevada mountain range. He often recalled that as a boy, he would hike surrounded by the clear evidence of God’s hand in creation. While we do not have any notes from Thom that tells us where he was when he painted this Plein air, you can definitely place yourself in his hiking shoes and envision capturing Cottage in the Pines in that moment of time. -Thomas Kinkade Studios
